Maggie Johnson is the Sous Chef for Simply Elegant Catering. She has been with the company for more than three years. Her interest in food started at the age of fourteen which ultimately lead to her current career. With a career in art and photography and an eye for details, Maggie decided to take her creativity in a whole new direction. She enrolled in the Le Cordon Bleu program at the Atlantic Culinary Academy. She graduated with honors and received the department award, an award given for outstanding performance in each department.
Maggie then proceeded to the Emerson Inn by the Sea in Rockport, MA , to complete her internship and start her career. She was hired by Executive Chef Lynette Mosher, who was written up in Boston Magazine as a “chef on the rise.” Maggie then moved on to Strega, in Salem, MA, as Sous chef. When Maggie teamed up with Executive Chef Brian Connahan, they worked to create a menu which made Strega one of the “hottest places” on the North Shore.
After a year she had the opportunity to go in a different direction and joined Simply Elegant Catering. Maggie was promoted to Sous Chef shortly there after, where she continues to create new and exciting menus.
