As a finalist on Seasons 10 and 17 (All-Stars) of Hell's Kitchen on FOX, Dana Cohen gained the hard-earned respect of acclaimed Chef Gordon Ramsay and was dubbed the "Scallop Queen" for her seafood mastery. She also appeared as a fierce competitor on Food Network's Chopped. Dana attended the prestigious Culinary Institute of America (CIA) in Hyde Park, NY which led to an externship at The Four Seasons Resort in Palm Beach, FL. During her time there, Dana was inspired by the fresh produce picked daily from the garden and local seafood caught just offshore. This is where she developed her cooking style, with a flair for transforming local and seasonal ingredients into simple yet memorable dishes. Dana explored her passion for sharing her love for food and cooking as a Chef Instructor at the Viking Cooking School, where she taught a wide range of hands-on classes and cuisines to aspiring home chefs. Her most notable "student" was NY Giants Quarterback Eli Manning. Dana is currently the Corporate Marketing Chef for Unilever Food Solutions in Englewood Cliffs, NJ, where she helps to inspire chefs all over the world with the latest trends and products. Determined to find the best local dishes wherever she travels, Dana is a firm believer that great food enhances any experience. In her spare time, Dana enjoys teaching kickboxing, working out, and playing tennis. Her favorite dishes are often inspired by flavors of her travels combined with whatever catches her eye while strolling through the farmers' market; and are then shared over a glass of wine and some laughs with good friends.
