A Texas native, he packed up his freshly-honed Classical French techniques and quickly returned to his home state, adding regional Texan cuisine to his culinary repertoire. The next fifteen years presented Cory with many versatile opportunities to serve as Chef De Cuisine, Executive Sous Chef, and Executive Chef at fine dining, avant-garde European concepts, and luxury hospitality restaurants, garnering multiple industry awards and "best of" distinctions throughout his professional journey.
