Meet Joshua
Joshua lives in the town of Napoleonville, in the heart of Assumption Parish, with his wife Jamie and three boys, Jackson (8), James (5) and Luke (Born March 2022). The oldest boys both attend Napoleonville Primary School. Joshua grew up in Napoleonville, "Down the Canal", until he graduated from Assumption High School. He then moved and attended LSU in Baton Rouge pursuing a degree in Music Education and Business Management.
After finding his passion in the hospitality industry by starting his own personal chef and catering business, he left LSU and began cooking for private clients and working full-time in as many kitchens as possible. After moving up through the ranks quickly and learning everything he could from his peers, mentors, and coaches, he progressed his career to managing many local restaurants and hospitality groups over the years. Joshua has been bestowed many awards and accolades in the industry and has mentored and consulted with many restaurants, chefs, caterers, hotels, and other businesses across the country. He currently sits on the board of the Baton Rouge Epicurean Society. BRES works hard to raise funds for child nutrition education, programs, and research. Joshua also mentors young adults who aspire for a career in the hospitality industry through school programs and ProStart programs. He is currently the Managing Partner and Executive Chef of a restaurant group consisting of Roux 61 Seafood & Grill and County Pie Pizza Company located in Baton Rouge and Natchez.
When he and Jamie, who is also a Napoleonville native and a graduate of Assumption High School and Nicholls State University, got married and started to dream about their family, they decided to leave the city and move back home to raise their children close to family, the bayou, their roots, and their love of hometown values. The family moved back to Assumption Parish in 2013 and have lived in Napoleonville on Franklin Street in a 121 year old historic home they have been restoring with love since 2018. Some of Joshua’s hobbies include spending every minute he can with his wife and children, cooking, playing tennis, road tripping, attending live music events, being on the water, and volunteering for many local and national programs. He also began playing trombone in middle school and was a member of the Pride of Sugarland Band at AHS and The Golden Band from Tigerland while attending LSU. He has taught marching classes and clinics and has written music and marching competition shows for AHS and other high school bands in the region. He has also been a substitute music program teacher in the past for AHS, NMS, and PPMS.
