Meet Keven

I am the CEO of CKL Events, with over 26 years of experience in the culinary and events industry. For the past 11 years, I have owned and operated a full-service catering and event company, proudly maintaining a five-star rating on Yelp through consistent quality, creativity, and client satisfaction.

My cuisine is globally inspired, and I am able to execute any style of cooking at any level, from intimate gatherings to large-scale luxury events. My team and I come fully equipped with everything needed to deliver a seamless, elevated experience from start to finish. Bring us an idea, and we will turn it into reality.

I trained at The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, and continued my education in Switzerland, specializing in European chocolate pastry and European culinary arts. This background allows me to blend strong technical foundations with creativity and precision.

My philosophy in the kitchen is simple: great food starts with fresh, high-quality ingredients. You can’t fake great food—and I never try to.
