TEAM MEMBER SPOTLIGHT✨Meet Charlie, our catering Sous Chef, who has been part of the Bard Dining team for an incredible 20 years!
His connection to Bard runs in his family, too - his mother also spent 20 years working here.
A local to the Red Hook/Rhinebeck area, Charlie has a passion for cooking comfort food. And when it comes to his all-time favorite meal, nothing beats his mother’s homemade lasagna.
Outside the kitchen, Charlie enjoys biking, playing sports whenever he gets the chance, and occasionally heading out for a day of fishing.
Thank you, Charlie, for 20 years of dedication to Bard Dining and everything you bring to our team!
