Welcome to SPRING 2025!

Thank-you for taking an interest in the courses I am teaching this semester.

As your professor, I am looking forward to diving into the world of procurement and costing for hospitality and bulk production cooking in Culinary Fundamentals 20A and working together to make our class experience memorable and purposeful. My personal goal is for you to leave my class with practical skills to ensure your success in your future pursuits and careers.

I am here as a resource and to facilitate your learning. I am available to advise, coach, mentor and listen, however your effort is the most important factor in your success in the class. 

I believe that education should always be engaging and open; communication is absolutely key. Please feel free to contact me by emailing me at Lmackenzie@ccsf.edu with any questions you may have about current and/or future courses. Also, if you have questions of how to add a class, being on a waitlist, how to request a letter of recommendation, etc., please visit my "Additional Instructor Policies" page.

I hope you are as excited as I am! Get ready for both stimulating and challenging courses centered on the best practices for sourcing, procuring and costing all the products you need to successfully operate or manage a hospitality business.
