Meet Our Team
“One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” Virginia Woolf
Sandi Graham, Owner
It was a long-time dream to own a cooking and sewing school. I (finally) opened Vintage Kitchen after 27 years of teaching Family and Consumer Sciences at middle school, high school, and college levels as well as teaching undergraduate and graduate nutrition courses.
I have earned Bachelor of Science degrees in Home Economics and Nutrition from Mansfield State University and a Master of Sciences in Community Nutrition with an emphasis in Sports Nutrition from Georgia State University.
Cooking classes at Vintage Kitchen are designed to incorporate food science, time-management, nutrition, and, most importantly, fun. You need to eat to live, so you may as well enjoy the process!
