Dax's Story
Life
I have spent the last 20+ years on a mission to learn everything about food. After Central I bounced around some restaruants in Milwaukee before packing my bags and moving to New York where I studied Culinary Arts at the Culinay Institute of America. After C.I.A. I married my wife and moved back to Milwaukee where I worked long hours, weekends and holiday's as an Executive Chef at fine dining establisments, loving evey moment of it. About 9 years ago we started having kids and soon realized that having a family and a restaurant carrer do not mix well, I started looking for ways I could use this passion for food and family and still make a living. I am now Corporate Chef for Palermo's pizzas designing their unique frozen pizza lines, many of you may have already tried my food! I have been working on a couple of cookbook ideas and would like to try to publish them once...Expand for more
I feel I have them more complete than they are today.
I love to spend time with my kids (1 boy and 1 girl)and coach in all their sporting activities. I have grown a passion for teaching kids how to be good people and how to have fun in whatever they do. Being a parent is much harder than it looked when we were growing up!
Life has been very good and I have few regrets, one however is that in high school due to all my outside activities (such as hockey which is now a school sport) I was not as active with my fellow classmates on an extracuricular social level and thus never kept in touch over they years. Please feel free to contact me at my dax.s junk e-mail account at juno.com or at palermospizza.com we are on the web. it may take me awhille to respond since I rarely check this account, but use the suject title "BROOKFIELD CENTRAL" so I can spot it quickly when I do.
