Nora R. Folk, Director of Operations

As the director of operations Nora has her hands in everything and she wouldn't have it any other way.  After cutting her teeth on the Boston restaurant and private dining scene, she began her journey with Cuisine Chez Vous in 2006.  Her biggest strength is fitting a square peg in a round hole.  Since no two venues, events or clients are the same her knack for developing the right plan is what makes her an asset. When she is not planning or executing events she can be found practicing yoga, running, or taking a rendezvous to Portland.
