Bridge View Center is pleased to announce that Seth Simmons has been promoted to Executive Chef. Simmons, who hails from Fairfield, Iowa, is a 2016 graduate of the Indian Hills Community College Culinary Arts Program and 2018 Buena Vista University Business Management Program graduate.
With over 15 years of experience in the industry, Simmons said, he’s still looking to push the envelope and challenge himself to be the best. He also strives to bring new dishes and flavors to the area.
“Cooking is all about taste and technique,” Simmons said. “It’s fun and exciting when we can use those two foundational principles and create something new to the palate.”
Bridge View Center Executive Director, Tim Seeberg, praised Simmons for his service-driven attitude and dedication.
“We’re so lucky to have Seth on our team,” Seeberg, who joined Bridge View Center this past June, said. “I was immediately struck by the kindness of everyone on staff at BVC, but Seth brings extra enthusiasm.”
The Bridge View Center is located at 102 Church Street in Ottumwa. Upcoming opportunities to experience Executive Chef Seth Simmons’ culinary delights include Breakfast with Santa (November 28) and Wine Pairing Wednesday (December 4). The Bridge View Center is available for catered events such as small to large meetings, weddings and more.
