Please checkout this live mentoring conversation with the up and coming generation of private aviation culinary professionals including one who is also pursuing a professional pilot career. Join Executive Chef Young Park, the founder of First Chime and I as we discuss in detail the rewarding opportunities of catering meals for private jet passengers.

You'll meet Kailyn Williams, a recent graduate of DuVal High School's Aerospace Engineering and Aviation Technology program who is currently pursuing a degree in aviation at Delaware State University with a concentration in professional pilot training, and Christian Gray, who is currently in his first year at Frederick Community College studying business with plans to transfer to a four-year, then eventually study business law, and is currently employed by First Chime a Prep Cook.

Chef Young Park offers a grass roots perspective on often an overlooked aspect of private aviation, sharing her story of transitioning from being a corporate flight attendant to becoming a renown executive chef. She attributes much of First Chime's Michelin Star level of service to her culinary partnership, inspiration, and guidance from Michelin-starred Chef Pangaud.

As a way of giving back, Chef Park visits and speaks to high school and college students who have a passion for cooking and suggests they explore applying that passion to private aviation catering. To solidify their involvement she created an internship program and offers a Yong-Sung Park Scholarship annually.
