Top Chef Bio
Before becoming a chef, Robin was an artist.
While pursuing a Masters in Fine Arts at the University of Michigan, she took a job in the catering department. This was only intended to be a summer job, but it quickly became clear she had a passion for food.
Robin's Pacific Northwest roots are the foundation of her cooking, which is accented by the flavours of her world travels.
Robin formerly owned and operated Crave, a popular Seattle bistro, and currently uses her cooking and culinary connections to help raise money for Lymphoma research and is closely involved with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.
