A life-long Rhode Islander, Chef James has been working in the kitchen since he was fifteen. After graduating from Johnson & Wales University, he pursued a career in fine dining. Cutting his teeth at restaurants in Rhode Island and France, he learned the craft, and worked his way up the kitchen ranks; notably working as the Executive Sous Chef at The Boathouse, and Red Fin Crudo + Kitchen, as well as serving as the Executive Chef of Preppy Pig BBQ, and KG KitchenBar.
With Sea & Smoke, Chef James has brought together his years of technical experience, his passion for smoked foods, and his love of New England cuisine. His thoughtfully prepared dishes highlight the flavors of the season, with local ingredients, and the age-old method of wood fire cooking. James brings his standards of excellence and attention to detail to each and every event, no matter how big or small.
