Nancy Maurer

Corporate Chef

When food has style, it’s likely Chef Nancy Maurer had a hand in it. As a former winner of the American Dairy Association’s “Say Cheese as Edible Art” Contest, Chef Nancy has both the skills to carve a 40-pound block of cheddar into a basket filled with flowers and the passion to play with food.
