Since 2004, Michele has enhanced the Chez Gourmet team with trans-atlantic flair.  Born and raised on the Island of Malta, Michele studied at the International School of Tourism and Catering for three years, and then received a scholarship to Florence, Italy, to study hotel management – learning all aspects of that business but with special attention to the restaurants, banquets and kitchen.    After returning to Malta, Michele worked with The Corinthia Group of resorts in public relations.   Between 1989 and 1995 Michele spent time in Eastern Europe, mainly Croatia, Hungary, Poland and Slovenia, managing offices for local companies.  In 1996 she moved to the United States, started a family and a successful business.  Coming full circle Michele is back to planning parties, excited to bring her sense of international style to every event.
