By BOSHIKA GUPTA
Season 16 “Hell’s Kitchen” winner Chef Kimberly Ann Ryan impressed the viewers and judges with her extraordinary culinary skills and sheer determination on the show. From immense struggles to a big win, here’s what the chef from Traverse City, Michigan, has been doing since.
Following the show, Ryan worked as the head chef at Yardbird Southern Table & Bar at The Venetian in Las Vegas. She also began making regular Instagram posts about cooking and on general life updates, but after contracting COVID-19 in 2021, Ryan went through a rough patch.
She explained her ordeal in September 2021 via Twitter, describing how difficult it had been “since getting #covid back in March.” Per her Instagram post in early December 2021, Ryan had been slowly recovering, though her illness and being out of work affected her financially.
