Instructor: Rosilind Woodfork Chef Rosilind Woodfork started her culinary journey early on in life. At the age of 16, she catered her first small wedding while attending the Upper Valley Joint Vocational Career Center. Rosilind went on to earn her degree in culinary arts and hospitality management from Sinclair Community College in Dayton. She obtained her first management job shortly after graduation. Her love affair with the food industry, managing kitchens, writing menus and everything involved with being a chef grew throughout her 27-year career. As an executive chef, she realized her love for teaching culinary arts was just as strong as her passion for cooking, and is now pursuing teaching so she can pass along her skills to home chefs who share the same love of food.
