The culinary training program is a program like no other! Not only do they teach the hard and soft skills it takes to be a top notch professional in the culinary business, but they transform lives for the better!

Chef Timothy Tucker brings life and hope wherever he gets to offer his life changing culinary programs in the community. Step up and raise the bar and you’ll go far if you get the chance to study under him. It’s not for everyone so be brave and work out if it’s for you! And you won’t look back 😎

Timothy has been attentive to helping his students restart their lives by giving them a career to focus on. I’ve personally seen this progress of this program over the years from its origins in Louisville when I was a teenager. It helped many people in need then and it helps many people now. His decades of experience in the restaurant industry brings a strong foundation for his students to learn the culinary arts through his program.
