About us
Hospitality Forward was founded by Certified Master Chef Shular, an educator with over 20 years of experience in culinary education. Inspired by personal experiences and a passion for mentorship, Chef Shular aims to address the financial challenges faced by aspiring culinary professionals.
Challenges in the Hospitality Industry:
The closure of culinary institutes has created a void in present and future skilled workers in the fast-growing hospitality industry. Hospitality Forward seeks to bridge this gap by continuing culinary and hospitality arts programming for youth and providing financial assistance to those pursuing higher education at the Shular Institute.
