She knew she could, so she did. I am Devenee Schumacher, a chef and food pioneer, who has a passion for quality, service and all things natural. Developing a brand with $500 and growing it into a multimillion-dollar business didn’t come without its fair share of challenges. Setting myself apart from the stigma placed on women in a male dominated industry, I have helped create a path for others to become strong, confident leaders, to use their abilities to create change and develop individuality.
