BRYCE SHUMAN
Executive Chef
Bryce Shuman grew up in Chapel Hill, NC and was exposed to diverse food at a young age courtesy of his mom, a cultural
anthropologist, who would bring the whole family along on field trips to places such as the Arctic and the jungles of Costa Rica. After
cooking at a local NC restaurant where he would meet his future wife, Jenn, he moved to San Francisco to enroll at the California
Culinary Academy during the day and work at Wolfgang Puck’s Postrio at night. Upon graduation, he joined the staff at Rubicon, where
he was mentored by acclaimed chefs Stuart Brioza and his wife Nicole Krasinski (now of State Bird Provisions). Upon returning to the
east coast he joined Daniel Humm’s team at Eleven Madison Park, where he worked for six years and was promoted to Executive Sous
Chef. When not at Betony, Bryce’s hobbies include blues guitar, taking photographs with his Polaroid Reporter SE, and annoying his
cats.
EAMON ROCKEY
General Manager
Eamon Rockey grew up in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, the son of two professional chefs who encouraged him to pursue a life in
restaurants. At age 14 he started working after school at Sakura, Hattiesburg’s only sushi restaurant at the time. He later attended the
Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, where he was introduced to the service side of the hospitality business. Upon graduation,
Eamon moved to New York City, where for the past eight years he has worked in acclaimed restaurants such as Gilt, Eleven Madison
Park, Atera and Aska. When not at Betony, Eamon enjoys cooking, collecting food and beverage-related books, exploring new
restaurants, as well as biking and the performing arts.
