Zachary Chamberlin graduated from Columbia College with a degree in musical theatre, and then switched gears by coming back to his true love- cooking. Recently he has worked in the kitchens of Chato’s in Pilsen and Drawl in Lincoln Park, where he got to expand his knowledge and love of Southern cuisine. It’s that love and knowledge that Zac now puts into every dish at Big Jones, where he has worked for three years.
Zac lives in Andersonville with his wife Hannah and cat Maggie, and loves playing Dungeons and Dragons weekly in his free time.
