A trained chef and dual citizen of the US and UK, Stevie re-located to the States in 2006 from London. Starting a career as a talk radio producer, Stevie eventually transitioned into emergency medicine for nearly a decade. While working as a 911 and critical care paramedic for some of New York City’s top hospitals, he needed an occasional break from the high stress environment and became a cheesemonger at The Greene Grape, one of Brooklyn’s most successful specialty groceries. Known for one of New York’s largest and most well- stocked cheese and charcuterie counters, The Greene Grape provided Stevie the opportunity to deepen his knowledge of the world’s finest cheeses and provisions. Most of all, he delighted in helping customers pick cheeses, introducing them to new favorites, and sharing them among family and friends. Stevie also trained as a chef at London’s prestigious Leith’s School of Food and Wine.
