Chris Miller, the Executive Chef of the Kannery, has had a storied career in the culinary world. His journey began at the young age of 15 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he trained under the tutelage of Chef Zack Calvin for eight years. This apprenticeship set the foundation for his future career and prepared him for the next phase.

In Denver, Chris honed his skills in multiple high-end restaurants, gaining valuable experience and building a strong foundation of knowledge. He then ventured to Seattle, where he worked at the Flying Fish, expanding his culinary horizons and gaining new perspectives.

After returning to Colorado, Chris spent 15 years working with Wholefoods, where he ran Seafood departments, worked in store management, and product development. It was during this time that he developed a deep appreciation for quality ingredients and sustainable practices, which he brought to his role as Executive Chef of Lands' End in Homer. It was here that he met Cody Fry and the story of the Kannery began to unfold.
