Chef Richard Ingraham was born and raised in Miami. He trained at the Art Institute of Atlanta. A few years later, he was offered what is now his current position as Private Chef for the Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade. His world-class training, recognitions, and passion for fine cuisine and spirits has allowed him to create a network of private chefs called ChefRLI, LLC that serves a plethora of NBA, NFL, MLB, and entertainment personalities, as well as corporate clients across the country. Chef Ingraham has also joined JWU alumna Michelle Bernstein and Michael Schwartz in First Lady Michelle Obama’s Chefs Move 2 Schools White House Initiative to encourage healthier eating habits among our country’s youth. In 2013, ChefRLI combined efforts with Beyond the Boroughs Scholarship Fund Founder and NFL Vet Tutan Reyes to provide healthier eating options to kids in New York City.
