Chef AC, also known as “The Chef in THE Dress,” is a professionally trained private chef, lifestyle and culinary influencer, content creator, and entrepreneur. She is the first-ever Chef in THE Dress, creating a unique space where food, fashion, lifestyle, and storytelling come together.

Her culinary foundation began in her family, where she learned the basics of cooking from the women who raised her and passed down their love for food, family, and gathering around the table. She later graduated from Clemson University with a degree in Biological Sciences, taking an unconventional path toward her calling in the culinary world.

Guided by her faith and a vision God placed on her heart, Chef AC expanded her territory across the country in less than two years, trusting Him through every transition, challenge, and new beginning.

Today, through The Soul of American Cuisines, Chef AC creates memorable culinary experiences, shares her lifestyle and culinary journey with her community, and has had the opportunity to work with celebrities, professional athletes, entertainers, brands, and notable personalities.

Her journey is rooted in faith, family, resilience, and the belief that what God has placed inside of you deserves to be pursued.

Chef AC’s Playbook: Taste of the Soul is the next chapter of that journey, bringing together her love of Southern food, football, storytelling, and legacy in a cookbook created to be cooked, shared, and remembered.
