How to Create Your Own Recipe for Success | Jason Licker | TEDxUCSD

In his talk, Jason uses his cross-culture culinary experiences to demonstrate the power held inside each of us to create our own recipes for success. Jason shows how his greatest loss ultimately led to discovering his passion and how he harnessed grief into exploration. From moving to Shanghai as a pastry chef, to becoming an award-winning cookbook author, to winning Iron Chef Thailand, Jason hopes that his experiences can serve as a guidebook for those in pursuit of living life as boldly and unapologetically as possible.
Jason’s passion for pastry, life and travel has taken him across the globe for a true culinary experience. His first internship was at Union Square Café in New York while training at the French Culinary Institute’s Pastry Arts Program. Jason then earned a pastry cook position in the world renown Jean Georges Restaurant, an experience which prepared him for his first Pastry Chef position at Metrazur for Charlie Palmer at the age of 23. Jason then opened the The Shore Club in Miami Beach where he was promoted to Executive Pastry Chef overseeing all Food and Beverage Outlets including Nobu Miami Beach, where Jason was first exposed to Asian Cuisine. Jason has held Executive Pastry Chef positions at the Peninsula New York, The Westin Bund in Shanghai, The Venetian Macau Hotel and Resort, The JW Marriott Hong Kong and formerly was the Corporate Pastry Chef for Cé La Vi Restaurants Worldwide. His win at Iron Chef Thailand is an affirmation of his elite Pastry status. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
