"I’m thrilled to join Kevin and the SideChef Board members,” says Hall. “As a one-shop stop for all cooking needs, SideChef has attracted a growing community of consumers looking for quick and easy ways to create delicious healthy meals. As a professional in the food and beverage industry with a passion for clean healthy home cooked food, and as a mom of two sons learning to cook from scratch, I love what the SideChef team has created and am excited to contribute to their future growth."
