I Cook Food. Mostly Plants.

Junior Sous Chef

Hi, my name is Cevon Thurston-Edwards. I’m a young culinary professional originally from Boston, MA. About seven years ago, I moved to Los Angeles, where I’ve spent nearly a decade working in fine dining kitchens and earning leadership roles across several establishments. I also launched my own catering company, which I managed successfully until it faced setbacks during the pandemic. Despite those challenges, I’ve remained focused and driven in my career. I believe this opportunity is an ideal fit — I’m reliable, dedicated, and well-versed in managing fast-paced, high-pressure environments. I’m confident that once we meet, you’ll see we’re aligned in both vision and work ethic.
