Sous Chef
My name is Karma, I was born in Sumter, SC but basically raised in Charlotte, NC. I graduated from South Meck in 2007. I inspire to be the best in anything I put my mind to due to being competitive. My biggest accomplishment is being able to make it where I’ve made it to in my career being a self taught chef with no prior culinary training or schooling. I started off as a line cook at 204 North and I am not currently the Sous chef. I enjoy my role within this company because it is one of the most peaceful kitchens I’ve been in and the first where all of the management get along great. I enjoy the opportunity for advancement within the MJG. I spent 2 months as a line cook before I was promoted to Sous chef and have been in this position for the last 5 months. On my free time I like to skate, relax and chill with my animals, and create different recipes. My interesting little family consists of a great dane puppy, a pitbull rottweiler mix, a bearded dragon, snow leopard gecko, and a snake. My partner also has a chow chow. A fun fact about myself is that I like to carve fruits and veggies into random objects. One day I would like to have a restaurant I can call my own.
