My name is Felicia Simon but everyone calls me Jade. I am a 32yr old retired line cook who decided to leave the kitchen a year ago when I came to the realization that all the hard work wasn’t paying off financially nor mentally. I often found myself in fine dining restaurants being the only black cook and it never felt acceptable. 


I began ChefingWhileBlack in 2017 with the idea that we need to see more black people cooking on screen whether on television or just from your phone and I wanted to be the person who is a part of making that happen. There are so many amazing black chefs who should be showcasing their talent to the world and they shouldn’t have to beg for that opportunity from tv channels or online publications who do not value black people as chefs and content creators. 

ChefingWhileBlack will be the channel for every black chef, food journalist, food photographer and every other black creative in the culinary industry.
