Young was born into a culinary family in Lima, Peru.

After finishing his culinary degree in 2005 at the San Ignacio Culinary Institute, a part of the American Culinary Federation and the Paul Bocuse Institute, he worked in the kitchens of several land-based restaurants and on-board Disney, Princess, and Costa Italian cruise ships. From 2018-2020, he had the opportunity to cook at The Grill by Thomas Keller in the Seabourn Luxury Cruise Line. When Covid shut down operations, Young transitioned to yachting. As a Peruvian Chef, of course, Peruvian food is in his blood and is his specialty. Throughout

He learned and perfected his skill over the years, cooking amazing Italian, French, Mediterranean, Asian, Caribbean and American dishes – you name it and he will make it!
