ELIJAH LEAVELL

Elijah was born in Vermont, but has lived in Cedarville since he was ten, with his parents and two siblings, brother Gabe (17), and sister Story (7), and two dogs, a poodle named Moses and a yorkie named Phoebe.  Elijah was homeschooled, which he says allowed him to devote more time to his love of the art of cooking. He also enjoys anything outdoors and playing the guitar.  He enrolled in LCCS to become a fine dining chef.  He loves the creativity that is encouraged, and ”the freedom to blossom and flourish”.  His goal has been to learn as much as he can to enable him to cook at amazing culinary establishments, particularly in Nashville because he loves its music, and is excited about the city’s budding culinary scene, which is focused on blending Southern comfort food with today’s innovative creations.
