Mr. Lejorn Travis Damon JJ Hill was born March 7, 1994, in the village of Greenbay, St. John’s, Antigua. He is the son of Judith Lee and John Hill, both of whom are Antiguans. He attended the Gray’s Crescent Primary School and then the Princess Margaret Secondary School where he graduated in 2013.
He began working in the culinary industry after completing culinary training at the Antigua and Barbuda Hospitality Training Institute. Lejorn built on his culinary knowledge by working at some notable resorts in Antigua such as Carlisle Bay Resort and Jumby Bay Resort.
Lejorn migrated in search of further opportunities to develop his culinary expertise. He had work experience at San Carlo Osteria Piemonte, New York, and at Fairmont Hamilton Princess and Beach Club, Bermuda. Lejorn then moved on to Dubai where he worked at Paramount Hotel. He is currently in Dubai and is working as a Personal Chef.
He integrates his passion and expertise into his work to make every meal a unique and memorable culinary experience. The many hours, days, and even weeks it takes to craft the flavors behind a meal appeal to him as much as the actual meal itself. The idea that a dish has that wonderfully unexpected flavor, brings Lejorn a profound sense of joy and satisfaction.
