Molly Graham, Director of Culinary Programs & Team Leader, MacGregor and Gross Elementary Schools
Chef Molly Graham joined Recipe for Success in August 2008 shortly after moving to Houston. Since then she has become involved in the local food culture through her work with Chef Monica Pope as a catering chef and as a vendor at the Houston farmers markets. Graham enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for healthy, local, and fresh food with students on a daily basis through her role as an educator with RfS.
Graham hails from California, where her love of food and cooking took root. While working towards a BA in Business and Psychology from the University of the Pacific, Graham was known as the resident foodie, frequently hosting cooking classes at her sorority, catering local events and cooking for private clients. Her passion led her to culinary school at the Kitchen Academy where she was a member of the Escoffier Honors Club and Valedictorian of her class. After graduating, Graham established a private chef business.
She is thrilled to be a member of the Recipe for Success team. "Through my work with RFS I have been able to see firsthand how connecting children with their food creates lasting impressions and endless curiosity about what they eat," she says. "These experiences will keep them asking questions about their food for a lifetime, the more we can encourage that the healthier and more well informed our future generations will be."
Graham is a member of the American Culinary Federation and Les Dames d'Escoffier International.
