“I worked with Franck towards the beginning of our respective kitchen career. He was probably the one person that had the most hunger and ambition to learn and move forward on things. Great innovator when it comes to finding solutions and thinking outside of the box. Franck has always been a step above when it comes to business and most importantly gets things done. Rather than just delegating or just being in the operation, he mixes both management styles with perfect balance. Another thing that makes it easy is that Franck happens to be a great human being besides work.”

“After coaching Franck through his first book, I can confidently say he is the most dedicated and driven person I've ever worked with. He told me upfront that when he decides to do something, he becomes obsessive about it. I'm not sure I fully believed him at first, but with each milestone along his book journey—setting the book's foundation, developing each section of the book proposal, drafting his manuscript, pitching, publishing—he showed me. That's one of my favorite things about Franck: He walks his talk. The combination of his relentless growth mindset, his deep care for his work and the people in his life, and his desire to always do and be his best creates the perfect storm (because often there is a little chaos) to achieve anything he sets his mind to.”
— Sabrina Estudillo Butler, BIPOC Book Coach, Editor at Unpolished Words
“I had the pleasure of meeting Franck in 2023 during the rebranding and launch of a luxury resort property I was working on. From day one, it was clear we shared similar professional paths and ambitions. Franck played a key role in the success of that launch, bringing deep industry knowledge, structure, and a relentless drive for excellence. Since then, our connection has grown into a valued friendship and trusted partnership. Franck is someone I look to for an honest perspective, motivation, and collaboration. He’s an entrepreneur at heart, always pushing boundaries, and inspiring those around him. Beyond his professional accomplishments, Franck is a dedicated family man—married and a father of two—balancing it all with integrity and grit. I’m grateful for our ongoing relationship and look forward to what the future holds.”

“What can I say about working with Franck? He truly gives you the confidence to be yourself. When you feel as if you can’t achieve your goal. I tell you to step in the kitchen with Franck. I thought before Franck that I had it all figured out, one conversation with him and I had to take it back to the drawing board. He will analyze the situation and professionally evaluate you. He has helped me reformulate my thought processes when stepping into a resort or even everyday life. With Franck anything can be accomplished professionally or personally. Thank you.”

why work with
chef franck
For me, everything begins with mindset. Growth, mastery, and commitment aren’t goals—they’re daily choices. I believe excellence is built moment by moment, in how you show up when no one’s watching, and in the refusal to settle for “good enough.” This philosophy has shaped every part of my journey—from the kitchen to leadership—and it continues to guide how I work, lead, and live today.
