Ellen Wulchin

Born into a large family, Ellen acquired her love of cooking at home while preparing meals for an active and lively crowd with diverse tastes and preferences.

It was a natural progression to pursue her love of food at the highly regarded Culinary Institute of the America (CIA) in Hyde Park, New York where she earned a degree in Culinary Arts.

Ellen also gained a greater appreciation of the value of using fresh, high quality ingredients and the limitless possibilities of food preparation!

After graduating from the CIA, Ellen held positions in a variety of establishments in the field ranging from hotel banquet kitchens to restaurants and caterers, each with its own culinary style.

She evolved her skills at the National Academy of Sciences where she created menus and planned events for committee breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and receptions.

She supervised the daily production, set-up, service, and presentation of culinary events in conference rooms, special event areas, and private dining rooms.

Tasting and experimenting with new foods has become Ellen’s favorite hobby. With her varied and adventurous background, Ellen is excited with the opportunity to pass her heartfelt joy of the culinary arts to eager students at Culinaria Cooking School.
