ACC Alumnus prepares meal for President of France! 🇫🇷
Graduates of Alamance Community College have traveled extensively, made names for themselves in their chosen fields, and crossed paths with newsworthy individuals.

His career path since earning his degree at ACC has taken him southward to New Orleans, Louisiana, opening starred restaurants, and feeding work crews on oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico.
