CBJ

8 years ago I took the giant leap and decided to start Cooking by Jessica. I had no idea what I was doing or how I was going to navigate, but I just knew I loved cooking and cooking for others and I wanted to share that with everyone. My company was all of 2 months old when I had the opportunity to compete on the @foodnetwork. It was one of THE BEST days of my life, and really kickstarted it all. After it aired, I started getting followers, and the client inquiries started to come in. Here we are now 8 years later, and CBJ has grown so big and I am SO PROUD of where it is going!! I wanted this so bad, and have always hustled so hard, and I guess it’s true what they say, hard work really pays off. Thank you to all of you who support, follow, hire, and refer me. It means so much to me you have no idea!! Big announcements coming soon so stay tuned to see what’s new with CBJ!! AND here’s to another year ❤️👩🏼‍🍳❤️ #cookingbyjessica #personalchef #cheflife #ilovewhatido #westchester #westchesterchef #lohud #food #foodie #anotheryear #celebration #8isgreat #thankyou
