Hi, I’m Tanisha White. I’m a culinary professional with hands-on experience designing menus, leading kitchen operations, and delivering high-quality dishes in fast-paced environments. I’ve built a blend of hands-on cooking skills and operations know-how, from line cook to kitchen manager, with attention to both flavor and consistency. Beyond the kitchen, I’ve cultivated skills in content creation, social media management, and branding through roles in marketing and media projects. I’m collaborative, reliable, and always eager to bring creativity and strong execution to a dynamic team.
