Chef Kimberly Haslam has had a passion for cooking since 1996. Her love took her to Blackstone Valley Tech in Upton, and then on to Johnson & Wales in Providence. Chef Kim graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Culinary Arts, and spent a semester abroad studying food and wine in France. She spent some time honing her craft with some notable stops along the way at 10 Steak & Sushi in Providence, and Michael Jordan's Steakhouse in Mohegan Sun. She then moved back into the area and spent 10 years as the Sous Chef at the Warren Conference in Ashland, Ma. 

Chef Kim and her husband started their family in 2012, welcoming their first child in 2012, and a second in 2014. While she enjoys fine dining and chasing down her next great meal, her real passion is American classics. She enjoys putting her modern take on classic American dishes with quality ingredients and pulling ideas from her varied culinary past. That's why when in 2017, long-time friend and Chef Adam Hicks asked her to join his team, she took him up on his offer. Kim is looking to show women do belong in a professional kitchen!
