Meet Paul, Cortland Howell Director of Culinary. Paul grew up around Bancroft, MI. It is halfway between Flint and Lansing. He graduated from Morrice High School. Paul loves being outside no matter time of year.
Paul started cooking at home when he was 12 or 13 because his parent's worked days. He started cooking at a coney island restaurant when he was 14. Paul had a lot of fun cooking, so he stayed with it. He worked in other restaurants around the area for a few years. Paul started working in healthcare and realized it was more rewarding cooking for the residents than it was in a restaurant. He has worked in healthcare for 24 years. Paul worked in Perry, Lansing, and in St. Johns MI. He has been cooking for around 40 years between restaurants and healthcare
When Paul's son was born, he started thinking about "what I was going to do with my life" and decided he was going to cook. He attended Mott Community College for a Culinary Arts and Food Service Management degree. He wanted the degree so he would have more knowledge and the papers to find a job that could turn into a career instead of just cooking.
Paul brings so much knowledge and talent to The Cortland Howell, we are thankful for such an amazing Chef. ... See MoreSee Less
