Raised in Conifer, Colorado, Chef Taylor began his career as a dishwasher at age 15. During his apprenticeship at Rocky Mountain Chefs of Colorado he simultaneously worked his way up to Sous Chef at one of the top steak and seafood restaurant companies in the country and eventually to Executive Chef at a historic Colorado mountain restaurant. He developed a knack for teaching and training and trained kitchen staffs for new fine dining restaurants in Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, and the Denver Tech Center. He has done consulting for other businesses from food trucks to assisted living communities to cocktail lounges. Chef Taylor also has extensive experience cooking for people with allergies and strict dietary restrictions which comes in handy when cooking for week-long Wellness Retreats in Colorado and Florida.

Pursuit of Passion

Whether it's creating new menus, traveling the world for inspiration, training apprentices or stepping out of his comfort zone to take on new challenges, Chef Taylor lives and breathes food. Marble & Marrow was born out of the difficulties brought on by the 2020 pandemic as a way to chart a new course and create opportunities independent of the constraints of a restaurant. Guided by a deep passion for the craft and the industry, Chef Taylor greets any challenge, no matter how large with an enthusiastic "Let's Do It!" In addition to Private Dining and Catering, Chef Taylor is currently working a healthy Prepared Foods line and multiple cookbooks designed to help home cooks from all walks of life cook and eat better at home.
