After fifteen years of sales and management, Vickie's decision to become a chef had finally come, starting in New York at the French Culinary Institute in a six-month program for pastry arts. There she was able to work with some well-known chefs. The program was exceptional, but Vickie realized she preferred the culinary arts and enrolled in Florida Culinary Institute's culinary arts program. Vickie graduated with a 4.0 and many honors, including 100 percent attendance. She worked as a personal chef for four years while attending school. After graduation, Vickie landed a job as an executive chef in a restaurant located in Delray Beach, Florida. The restaurant was sold when the proprietors retired (in their eighties). She moved to Wisconsin soon after and was married and worked as an event planner for a software company. Her husband died four years later, and she decided to go back to her passion-cooking. Presently, Vickie is the president of Tasty Impressions, LLC. She is currently cooking meals for clients on a weekly basis as well as teaching classes, Chef Vickie Live (similar to bringing a cooking channel to your home), and doing catering. Vickie is the personal caterer for some influential people in the Milwaukee area. With over twenty years' experience as a chef, Vickie is able to help many people with their health concerns. Her hours of research for Tasty Impression's clients have helped with different issues, including erectile dysfunction, heart-related symptoms, and weight loss. So far, Vickie is happy to say her hard work has paid off with positive results. That is why she wanted to share the information with you, the readers.
