Jacob grew up spending a lot of time cooking and baking with his mother, Dawn Kiamy, and late grandmother, Janice Lillicrap, in Piqua where he was born and raised. He would start his culinary journey at a young age in a small restaurant located in his hometown and this experience would fuel his drive for the industry. Jacob left Piqua in 2010 to attend Le Cordon Bleu in Pittsburgh, PA where he graduated with a degree in Culinary Arts as valedictorian of his class with honors. He spent the next 8 years in Pittsburgh where he would work for some of the best chefs in the city in a wide range of fine dining restaurant settings from places such as The Capital Grille, McCormick & Schmick’s, & Duquesne University. Pittsburgh offered him the experience in animal and fish butchery, seafood preparation, upscale pastries, and sugar/chocolate sculpting. In 2014, Chef Jacob opened a catering business in Pittsburgh while working for Duquesne university as an Executive Pastry Chef and operated his business until 2018. Shortly after, he took a position with Barney’s New York in San Francisco, CA. where he would spend the next year working under Chef Barney Brown mastering the use of fresh produce and seafood as well as furthering his knowledge of local, regional, and international wines and spirits. In late 2019, Chef Jacob returned to his roots and moved back to Ohio. In the summer of 2020 he took a position with the Boardwalk Grill as the Executive Chef where he has been able to bring his knowledge of scratch cooking and using high quality ingredients to further the Boardwalk Grill legacy.
