Author Information

A native of the Carolinas, Rashad Frazier's favorite memories growing up were countless springs and summers spent outdoors between Charlotte and the Low Country. He discovered his passion for cooking in his twenties, and after successfully founding and running the Afro-Asian pop-up catering company Yoshi Jenkins for several years, the 2020 pandemic required him to pivot his career. Camp Yoshi was born as a way for him to continue sharing his passion for food while also merging it with his love of the great outdoors. In the few short years since its founding, Camp Yoshi has expanded its offerings from five to fourteen trips a year, to destinations as varied as Tanzania and the deserts of eastern Oregon. Rashad's work has been featured in outlets such as The New York Times, Conde Nast Traveler, Vogue, and in Bryant Terry's collection of essays, Black Food. Rashad currently lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife Shequeita and their kids, Ellis, Zora, and Emory.
