Kristen Kish is a chef, author and TV personality. She was born in South Korea and grew up in Kentwood, MI. You may know her from Bravo’s “Top Chef” (or one of her many other TV shows), and you will soon see her as Alton Brown’s co-host on Netflix’s new “Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend.” In 2018, she partnered with The LINE Hotels to open her first restaurant, Arlo Grey,  in Austin, TX.
