Founded by award-winning chef Daniel Schreiber, his wife Stephanie, and founding Executive Chef Jeffrey Hanlon, Alchmy is a design-forward hospitality group that redefines what dining can be: immersive, mobile, emotionally resonant, and executed with world-class precision.
We operate at the intersection of fine dining and experience design, crafting culinary moments that are as thoughtful as they are unforgettable.
It starts at the source, with farmers who care for their soil, with producers who raise animals responsibly, and with purveyors who value integrity as much as rarity. In our kitchen, that care continues in every component, from the slow build of a sauce to the final placement of a garnish.
And throughout our service, it’s felt in the smallest, often unseen details: the timing of a refill, the tone of a welcome, the quiet confidence of a team that is fully present. This is what luxury means to us—not excess, but attention. Not trend, but care.
Chef Daniel brings over two decades of experience in Michelin-starred kitchens in New York and Chicago, where he trained under culinary icons like Jean-Georges Vongerichten and Grant Achatz. His refined technique, creative discipline, and visionary approach shaped the foundation of Alchmy’s culinary identity. In 2025, he received international recognition with the prestigious “Chef of the Future” award.
Stephanie is the connective thread between vision and experience. She leads with warmth, intuition, and a deep understanding of both people and process. From the first conversation to the final moment of service, she guides each client relationship with care and clarity, building trust, anticipating needs, and ensuring every experience unfolds with intention.
Executive Chef Jeffrey Hanlon contributes a parallel depth of experience in high-end restaurants and large-scale culinary operations. His leadership and intuition in both food and execution allow Alchmy to scale complex events while maintaining the precision and artistry of a fine dining kitchen.
Executive Sous Chef Malick Thioubou brings intuitive artistry and a distinct culinary perspective to Alchmy’s kitchen. With over two decades of experience spanning diverse cuisines, he approaches each menu with thoughtful creativity and quiet strength. His dedication to precision ensures every dish reflects Alchmy’s commitment to meaningful hospitality.
As Alchmy’s Vice President of Guest Experience & Service, Chris James leads both the beverage program and the front-of-house service culture. A renowned mixologist and sommelier, he designs tailored cocktail and wine experiences that complement Alchmy’s Michelin-level cuisine, while mentoring the service team to deliver warm, polished hospitality at every event.
Chris believes every pour should tell a story, transforming a simple drink into a memorable moment. His role ensures that from the first welcome cocktail to the final toast, Alchmy’s service feels personal, refined, and truly crafted for the moment
Together, this team has built Alchmy into a hospitality house that serves tastemakers, global brands, and discerning private clients.
From intimate dinners and pop-ups to multi-day brand activations and 500-guest galas, every experience we create is custom-designed to reflect the client’s vision, space, and story.
Our extended team of chefs, bartenders, service captains, and hospitality professionals brings experience from the nation’s top restaurants and luxury properties. With every project, we aim to deliver consistency without predictability and excellence without ego.
We are craftspeople of memory. We believe that dining, when designed with intent, can move people and anchor moments in time.

Throughout my career, I’ve learned that people always remember how you make them feel. My past experiences showed me that the simplest gestures, like truly listening and showing genuine care can create deep connections. Those moments taught me to always prioritize kindness, warmth, and personal attention with every client interaction.
Trust. When clients know you genuinely care about their experience and happiness, trust naturally follows. I focus on creating trust by always being open, honest, and consistent, making sure each client feels valued and understood.
“Treat every client like family.” When you see clients as family, you naturally give your best. It reminds me to bring warmth, respect, and genuine care into every interaction, turning relationships into lasting friendships.
My passion for cooking was sparked early on, rooted in the warmth of family gatherings and holiday traditions. Growing up, I watched both of my grandmothers bring our family together around the table through their incredible feasts. Their dedication and love for feeding others planted the first seed of understanding how powerful food could be, not just as sustenance, but as a connector of people and memories.
As Executive Chef of Catering Operations at Alchmy, I bring that same philosophy to every event we craft. Every client arrives with a vision, something personal, something meaningful, and it’s our job to bring that vision to life. It’s in the details: listening closely, understanding their story, and combining our culinary expertise with their inspiration. That’s how we turn classic dishes into memorable experiences, plated with elegance and intention.
In the kitchen, my leadership is guided by empathy and collaboration. I believe that excellence stems from a strong team culture, where creativity, respect, and purpose drive us. At Alchmy, we don’t just serve food; we create warmth and welcome in every bite. That’s what makes each menu not only beautiful, but unforgettable.
Of course. Not being classically trained, my culinary journey has shaped an avant-garde style grounded in over 20 years of experience across Italian, French, and Mediterranean cuisines. I bring that depth of knowledge together with a passion rooted in West African and Southern American traditions. As a self-proclaimed artist, food is my canvas—each event is a chance to express creativity in a way that feels both personal and memorable for not only the guest but myself as well.
Chef Hanlon and I have worked together for years, developing a strong synergy built on trust and shared standards. My creativity and thoughtfulness complement his deep culinary expertise and meticulous attention to detail, allowing us to consistently deliver events that are both seamless and special.
For me, the joy comes from recognizing the significance of each moment—every guest is trusting us with something meaningful. That responsibility drives my passion to create experiences that are intentional and unforgettable. We share that mindset with the team by emphasizing a culture of execution and consistency.
With a background in design, marketing, branding, and hospitality, I focus on crafting messages that feel personal, refined, and inviting. Every detail from tone to visuals is curated to mirror the care and elegance our guests feel firsthand.
I combine storytelling, expressive visuals, and intentional design to create a sense of connection and warmth. My background as an artist allows me to craft campaigns that are visually compelling, emotionally resonant, and aligned with our elegant brand voice.
I’m driven by your dedication to meaningful guest experiences. I reflect that by showcasing authentic moments, ensuring every brand touchpoint feels personal and unforgettable!
I transform our clients visions into reality by listening to their preferences and aspirations. By gaining insight into the significance of their events, I ensure that every detail aligns with their expectations. Additionally, I ensure that the timeline remains on track, allowing guests to focus solely on enjoying the occasion without any concerns.
The most fulfilling aspect of my work is the ability to bring a client's vision to life through attention to detail. It brings me joy to know that I play a pivotal role in creating a unique, once in a lifetime event that will be cherished by all generations.
To create an immersive experience where, for a few hours, the outside world fades away. Whether it is a private dinner or a wedding, each occasion receives the utmost attention. I strive to remind guests to live in the moment and fully enjoy their time together.
Truly, cannot recommend Stephanie, Daniel and their team enough. I originally got in contact with them to host a Christmas Eve party at our house and every single aspect beginning to end was completely flawless. Professionalism, organization, the food was absolutely amazing and the service was unmatched. I have since hired them for two more events than continue to look for ways I can actively refer them and work with them. Thank you!
Wow, Alchmy catering is amazing! We had a wedding reception for 50 people, and they did a great job setting up the food statuon, and giving us great variety of foods for our guests! Not only that, but literally every item that was served tasted amazing! Stephanie was great to speak with, very helpful with any questions we had. All in all, we couldn’t have asked for a better caterer; ZERO ISSUES from start to finish. Absolutely recommend!
Alchmy catered our Company holiday party in December. To sum it up in one word...AMAZING! From the beginning, Chef Dan and Stephanie were so accommodating with the menu planning and suggestions. The day of was flawless. The food was amazing, the service was so on point. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for professional, warm service, memorable and delicious food!!
Stephanie and Daniel are amazing. Stephanie is so supportive throughout the entire planning process. She went above and beyond what a typical caterer is expected to do—from figuring out the menu to helping us source table settings, lighting, and drink ware. She and Daniel made sure our guests with dietary restrictions were well taken care of. Stephanie and Daniel’s kitchen and waitstaff exhibited great professionalism and kindness. They were on top of everything, even with all the curve balls. The food and signature cocktails were DELICIOUS! The best food and drink we’ve ever had at a wedding. 10/10 would highly recommend Alchmy Catering.
