Chef Ashlie began her passion for creating distinctive cuisine experiences for others at a young age. She had already made a name for herself with friends who enjoyed her diverse dishes at dinner parties and gatherings. With a drive to combine her natural talent with formal training, she attended The Art Institute Of Las Vegas and graduated at the top of her class with honors.

    

     As a classically trained chef, Ashlie has worked in many diverse settings which have contributed to her unique cooking style, and her meticulous work ethic in the kitchen.

   

     She has trained and worked in some of the top restaurants in Las Vegas including Eatt Gourmet Bistro, one of the top health-focused and vegan-friendly French restaurants. She was an enthusiastic apprentice under the guidance of TV's Chopped champion, executive chef Yuri Szarzewski. She has worked in the classically French trained Joel Robuchon Michelin Star restaurant, L'Atelier Las Vegas. 

   

      She served her internship at the exclusive Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, where she gained experience working in a variety of award-winning restaurants, gaining experience in diverse recipes, plating styles, and food preparation. While working in one of the premier restaurants at The Cosmopolitan, she gained an extensive understanding of high volume, and demanding operations in a  fast-paced kitchen. This sharpened her ability to work under extreme pressure and contribute to a team atmosphere with the common goal to create the best dishes for their customers.

​

       Chef Ashlie's deepest desire is to create a unique dining experience as a private chef. She loves to indulge her clients with creations that represent her love of creating flavorful dishes, while showcasing her culinary expertise. 

    

         When Ashlie is not using her kitchen skills whipping up delectable dishes, she spends her downtime hiking or working out. An enthusiastic outdoor woman when not in the kitchen! She loves eating healthy (except on cheat day), reading (especially cookbooks), and hanging out with her two rescue pups, Joey and Pepe. There's always time to enjoy (and critique) a glass of wine, which will hopefully lead to her getting Sommelier certified soon! You can also find her watching her favorite church service online which keeps her grounded in God's Word and living in alignment with the wonderful purpose He has for her life.
