Creating a Career as a Food Stylist from Karen Evans
Craft Lake City DIY Fest Artisan Karen Evans built a career that many people didn’t know existed. She shares with us how she went from a line cook to a Food Stylist working with clients like Kate Spade and Time Magazine.
Starting Out
Karen Evans, a 22-year-old culinary school graduate and West Valley native, was bored with life in Salt Lake Valley.

Without having even been to the big apple, Evans decided to take a leap and move there. With her suitcase packed and a few shipped boxes, she made her way back east. Evans took her first job in a grilled cheese restaurant as a server/cook.
“For the first couple of years, I was just trying to get by. I had some crappy jobs, I worked in a bakery, just trying to make enough money to pay rent.” Evans recollects. After a few years of experiencing the city and making due as a line cook, pastry chef, server, and everything in between, Karen decided she wasn’t doing what she wanted to do.
