Diane Parker is a passionate baking and pastry instructor with a strong foundation in both classical training and hands-on industry experience. She completed the Baking and Pastry program at The McCloskey Culinary Institute at Clark College in Vancouver, Washington, and further expanded her culinary knowledge through the Rouxbe Culinary Program. Diane went on to teach baking, pastry, and culinary classes at Sur La Table in Portland, Oregon, where she developed a reputation for making techniques approachable, engaging, and practical for home cooks. Following the store’s closure during the COVID-19 pandemic, she co-founded a cottage baking business focused on fresh, same-day bread delivery—an experience that deepened her expertise in artisan baking and small-scale food entrepreneurship. She continues to stay connected to the business and regularly contributes when back in Washington. Dedicated to lifelong learning, Diane actively pursues advanced sourdough education through respected programs and institutions in the baking world. While in Dayton, Diane has enjoyed volunteering at the DLM Culinary Center, where she shares her knowledge and stays current with evolving culinary trends. Her teaching style emphasizes confidence-building, technique, and the joy of creating high-quality baked goods from scratch.
