Chef Gina
Chef Gina is on a mission to combine a career with her passion for cooking. Gina founded Quality Thyme, a Personal Chef service, in 2013 as a way to provide personalized meals cooked in families’ homes, allowing them to come together around the dinner table. Her passion for helping others discover healthy, tasty food has lead Chef Gina to create her own blog.Through the Quality Thyme Blog she shares her favorite recipes and knowledge she’s acquired from being a Personal Chef.
While attending the University of Colorado at Boulder, Chef Gina was immersed in the “Go Green” movement. During this time, she learned the importance of sustainable practices, the importance of eating organic and using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. After graduation, she worked in the restaurant industry, both in the kitchen and the front of the house.
Growing up as the youngest of three, Chef Gina had to get creative to get one-on-one time with her busy Mom. This led her to spend lots of time hanging around the kitchen counter where she would bug her Mom to find out what she was making. Through watching and helping her Mom create gourmet meals, Gina’s passion for cooking began.
Since starting the company in 2013 Chef Gina’s passion for cooking has only grown. She finds it especially rewarding when she can take on a creative challenge to revamp a classic dish with a fresh, healthy spin.
