About the Chef

Chef Mary learned to cook from her grandmother.  Grandma was from the “Old Country” and did not make anything from a box; all her recipes were from scratch.  Chef Mary continues that tradition by cooking home-made meals, creating her dinners with wholesome, nourishing foods.  She was taught that dinner time was family time, and she passes that on to her family and clients by making mouth-watering meals for everyone to enjoy.
Chef Mary Kelly - Certified Personal Chef
As a working mother of three teen-age children, Chef Mary understands the demands of today’s world and the stress everyone is under.  She knows that there never seems to be enough time and that making a healthy dinner can be difficult.  That’s why personal cheffing is so important to her; so that she can help her family and clients save time and eat better to meet the challenges of every-day-life.

In 2007 Chef Mary received the Certified Personal Chef (CPC) certification.  This designation was created in 1996 by the United States Personal Chef Association (USPCA) with a three-fold purpose:

  To provide a standard by which the public could assess a Personal Chef’s competency.
  To provide the Personal Chef with industry recognition of their professional commitment.
  To establish standards by which the Personal Chef industry could become self-regulated.

This federally registered trademark is an industry endorsement of professional expertise and assures her clients of Chef Mary’s continued commitment to excellence.

Chef Mary is a current member of the United States Personal Chef Association (USPCA) and has been with them since 2004.  Through this organization she has the opportunity to talk with hundreds of personal chefs from around the United States and access to over 500 various recipes.  She is ServSafe certified, is a member of the Heart of the Valley Chamber of Commerce and Mid-Day Business and Professional Women (BPW).  Chef Mary has degrees in both Accounting and Business Administration.
