Cathryn Evans   

Cathryn was born in the Bahamas in 1977 and attended Lyford Cay School until she was ten and then went to boarding school in England to do her GCSE’s and A-levels. Following that she went to the University of Portsmouth and studied Hotel & Catering Management and later worked in restaurants in London and did an advanced wine tasting course at Prue Leiths School of Food & Wine. Cathryn’s passion for cooking has taken her to courses from beautiful chateaus in Provence, South of France to the deepest rural Thailand, learning the local traditions and styles of cooking.

Cathryn moved back to the Bahamas in 1997 and began a job working at Bahama Hand Prints as office manager and within two years became Vice President of the company, running day-to-day operations, accounting and international & local sales. After the sale of Bahama Hand Prints, Cathryn did an epic journey traveling around the world. Upon returning to the Bahamas, Cathryn embarked on a new career working at her father’s offshore private bank, The Private Trust Corporation Limited. Cathryn thrived as a successful Trust Officer and Special Projects manager for five years, before leaving to start her new venture, Island Concierge Limited.

Cathryn is an avid traveler & photographer and enjoys scuba-diving, swimming and boating.
