Chef Teryi Youngblood, AKA the Gamer!

When we first approached Chef Teryi Youngblood of Passerelle Bistro in Greenville about competition in another event for a good cause, it took her all of about a minute to say, "sure".  Chef Youngblood is the quintessential "gamer" and everything that people look for in a leader.  People we have talked to describe her as "intense" and "passionate" yet "really kinda sweet" and always ready for a challenge. That is a fine line for a lot of people in her position.  It is easy to slide into a category of being just plain mean, barking orders and trying to be feared rather than respected, but she walks the line well and at Passerelle, a cute little bistro in the heart of Falls Park in Greenville, SC, she is known for her skill, amazing food, and getting things done.  Chef Youngblood has a lot on her own plate these days but she says that if she can, she will be a part of this event.  We hope to get her and 98 others just like her.
