Meet Chef Nik Fields of Chic Chef Co. in Buckeye

Today we’d like to introduce you to Chef Nik Fields.

Chef Nik, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
Food has always been my passion. I love how it brings people together. I’ve been in the Culinary Industry for over 25 years but never practiced it on a professional level. I worked full time making six figures moving my career in finance but not truly passionate about it. One day, I quit, Chic Chef Co. was born and the rest is history.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
It’s been a smooth road because people seem passionate about what I do and it’s difficult not to succeed when your passion is greater than anything else.

So, as you know, we’re impressed with Chic Chef Co. – tell our readers more, for example, what you’re most proud of and what sets you apart from others.
