Maurice is originally from New Orleans, and grew up watching his grandmother’s and mom’s cooking and seeing how happy it made their friends and family. He now enjoys making people happy himself through the food he and his culinary team prepares. Maurice started out as a certified nursing aide in senior living. When he learned he could combine his love of caring for others with his passion for the culinary arts, he attended culinary school. Maurice has developed a real talent for not only preparing great food but also serving people who have special nutritional needs and therapeutic diets. He knows that he is making a difference in the lives of our residents every day through the art of food.
When Maurice isn’t at Silverado, he still finds himself in the kitchen at home, often preparing his family-famous gumbo.
