Here is a look at who was featured as the 5 Most Progressive Charlestonians this week as part of Charlie Magazine’s 50 Most Progressive:
Andy Henderson – Executive Chef at Edmond’s Oast. The kitchen at Edmond’s Oast that just received a James Beard award nomination is not run in the typical “Hell’s Kitchen” style you see on TV; in this progressive kitchen no one is ever frantic and energy and food is never wasted.
Sara Peck – Poet/Writing Teacher. Actively changing the way young Charlestonians view writing. Peck’s enthusiasm for literature is contagious for her students and through her own poetry she is modifying the way we view southern writing.
Braeden Kershner – Music Education. Progressing with the times Braeden’s school started out as a serious music school but now he has replaced recitals with open mic nights and at Black Tie’s five locations there are video games and adult jam nights….but one thing remains the same they are still serious about music.
Jessica Morse – Bare Beauty Blogger. After throwing away all of her beauty products and starting a clean lifestyle Morse’s friends and family started asking her for advice so she started the Bare Beauty blog to share quest on the war against toxins and help Charlestonians live a beautiful clean lifestyle.
Andrew Tew – Digital Distributor at Litton Entertainment and owner/creator of Flooded Streets. Most recognizable as the brain behind the progressive city-centric t-shirt brand, Flooded Streets, Tew has also evolved with the Mt. Pleasant based TV production company Litton Entertainment.
