Two students in Northern Arizona University’s (NAU) School of Hotel and Restaurant Management (HRM) have been selected as the first recipients of a new culinary scholarship created in memory of chef Tomaso Maggiore. The Tomaso Maggiore Culinary Arts Foundation Scholarship will fund expenses not covered by other aid for one junior and one senior in HRM each year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, her plans shifted from culinary school to NAU’s School of Hotel and Restaurant Management. Leach said he hopes to teach culinary arts to other students eventually after spending some time building experience and making connections. Applications for next year’s Tomaso Maggiore Culinary Arts Foundation Scholarship will open in January 2024 for current sophomores and juniors in HRM at NAU.
