With more than 20 years of experience in all facets of the food service industry, Michael came to Cross Roads House in 2014 with a wealth of knowledge that helped us make better use of donated food, our committed volunteers' time, and even offer residents more meal options each day. Coming from the demanding life of cooking in busy restaurant kitchens in our nation's capital, Michael, his wife, and young son all appreciate the more family-friendly "nine to five" schedule of working full time as the Kitchen Coordinator at Cross Roads House.
