After graduating from The French Culinary Institute in New York City, Zack worked in various restaurant kitchens before starting with both Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and award-winning chef Michael Mina’s restaurant group in 2008. Zack spent ten years with both companies and helped open Bourbon Steak in DC, Pabu in Baltimore and The Handlebar in Jackson Hole.
