Chef Robert Davis comes to Alta Vista Senior Community from the beautiful Prescott Resort and Conference Center. He began his career locally in Prescott washing dishes at the Pine Cone Inn. After graduating from Prescott high school, he attended I.T.T. Technical Institute studying in the field of computer-aided design and engineering. After spending two semesters at I.T.T Tech, Chef Robert transferred back to Yavapai College and continued his love for cooking. Taking a semester off from his studies he earned a position on the opening culinary team for Planet Hollywood Phoenix. After a year in Phoenix, Chef became a certified corporate trainer and moved to San Diego to open Planet Hollywood Horton Plaza. While in San Diego, Chef Robert trained under Chef Scott Meskan, who was a partner and chef-owner of Georges at the Cove. When the time came for Chef and his wife to start their family, coming home to Prescott was the only choice for them. Upon returning to the area, Chef Robert accepted a position at the Prescott Resort and Conference center, where he worked for the next 14 years, as a banquet chef, and sous chef, and in 2006 accepted the position of Executive Chef at Alta Vista Retirement Community.
