Alexi Taylor Faucher is the principal of both ATF Catering and Seduction & Spice Specialty Dinners for Lovers. She approaches menu design and food preparation with the flexible perspective of a world traveler who has lived in America’s Heartland, the eclectic Southwest and on the East and West Coasts.

As the Millennium approached, Alexi considered her 20-year career in dentistry and consulting business as a professional organizer and reached the inevitable conclusion: it was time to begin the rest of her life.

Trading job security and scrubs for chefs whites and an uncertain future, she aspired to build a business from her lifelong vocation of creating food that is aromatic, visual and delicious; food that tantalizes and delights.

Alexi graduated from the Scottsdale Culinary Institute-Le Cordon Bleu in Scottsdale, Arizona. While attending culinary school, she gained practical experience in the food & beverage industry with a highly regarded trio of restaurants in the downtown Scottsdale Arts District: Cowboy Ciao, Sea Saw and Kazimierz world wine bar.

Currently residing in both Seattle and Arizona, she now combines her classical French training with the unbridled enthusiasm of a mid-life career changer and produces delicious results. Showcasing the bounty of each Season in its time, Alexi creates edible art from nature’s palette of ingredients to offer her guests their very own, personalized, feast for the senses.
