Story & Lesson Highlights with Ire Evans of Greenwood Village

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Ire Evans. Check out our conversation below.

Hi Ire, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to share your story, experiences and insights with our readers. Let’s jump right in with an interesting one: What are you most proud of building — that nobody sees?
I am most proud of my unique customer service. I really care about the need of my clients and build a relationship with them that makes me feel like they are my family

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Ire Evans the owner of Green Cuisine Personal Chef Service. My love of cooking flourished at a young age as my grandmother and I would spend hours together cooking for our family. Because of this, the act of cooking has always felt connected to sentiments of love, family, and community.

I decided to pursue my love of cooking for others by moving from Indonesia to Denver to seek a degree in hotel management. I worked in management at the Marriott in Denver as well as the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Jakarta, a diamond star hotel. My culinary dreams were temporarily put on hold when my children were born since I chose to stay at home and take care of them.

Once my children were old enough, I decided to pursue my chef certification from the Culinary Business Academy and start my own business. I always preferred to be in management and working behind the scenes. Owning my own business allowed me to build my vision of a service which prioritizes delicious, healthy, and fresh food that nourishes the body and soul. My Indonesian background coupled with my experiences in the restaurant business in the United States inspire me to offer a culturally diverse portfolio of dishes. I am versatile and able to adjust my services for a wide variety of diets and preferences. My experience as a mother of two wonderful children motivates me to create food that is fun and enjoyable for the whole family!

Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. Who taught you the most about work?
My parents taught me my work ethic

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering is a test of your strength to make me better as a human being professionally

So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. What would your closest friends say really matters to you?
My family

Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. If you retired tomorrow, what would your customers miss most?
My customer service and my personal touch
