Kelsey Oudendag
I am a Red Seal Chef and Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant. I am originally from Calgary, Alberta, which is where I developed my skill and expertise in the culinary arts and nutrition. I've enjoyed every moment of my time spent in the industry working in areas including catering, private clubs, personal chef services, commercial cheese production and nutrition counselling and education. My true passion lies in educating and empowering the next generation of talented cooks and chefs. I have taught in various culinary programs at SAIT, Olds College and now ´ó·¢¿ìÈýƽ̨. The Okanagan is a wonderful place to learn about food, wine and cooking, and when I'm not doing these things, I am enjoying all that Kelowna has to offer like skiing, hiking, biking and paddling.
