Kristin White | Catering Director "I am grateful for the opportunity to work in an environment that supports local, sustainable food & quality event planning. My passion for art & community is fulfilled thru TASTE Events partnership with the Seattle Art Museum. What a thrill to be a part of such a great team!"- Kristin White It may seem that fashion and food are worlds apart. But Kristin White bridged the gap when she moved from Los Angeles, where she had been in the fashion industry, to Seattle in 1990. Interested in exploring new sources of creativity, she dove into the bustling food scene. She became the wholesale manager at Macrina Bakery, which exposed her to the finest restaurants in the city and inspired a new career path. Her stint at Macrina led to positions as operations manager for Baci Catering and CaterArts. Her skills eventually earned her a position as the director of catering at Ray’s Boathouse. As the catering director for TASTE Events, Kristin draws on her training in fashion design and merchandising to visualize and execute stunning affairs at the museum. Her menus feature dishes made from the best local ingredients and are tied to art-driven themes. She frequently gets inspiration from local farmers markets |
