Geoff Tracy graduated from Georgetown University in 1995 with a degree in theology. He then went on to graduate first in his class at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. Geoff opened the original Chef Geoff’s restaurant in 2000. He currently operates the original Chef Geoff’s, Chef Geoff’s West End, Chef Geoff’s at Dulles International Airport, and LIA’S, and operates a kitchen in Wolfington Hall feeding the Jesuits three meals a day, 365 days a year. The restaurant group serves hundreds of thousands of guests every year and employs more than 250 amazing people.

Outside of the restaurants, Geoff enjoys golfing and trying to improve his mediocre tennis game. He serves on the board of the National Zoo and Congressional Country Club. He is the former chairman of both the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington and a local chapter of the Young Presidents’ Organization. Geoff is married to his Georgetown sweetheart, Norah O’Donnell. They have three children aged 18, 18, and 17. The twins will be starting their freshman year at Georgetown in the fall.
