After leaving her career as a teacher to pursue her dream of becoming a pastry chef, Dempsey enrolled in the Scottsdale Community College Culinary Arts Program.
You can find Dempsey and her sweet creations all over the Valley at hot spots such as the Phoenix Public Market and Citizen Public House to name a few. Known for serving up inventive desserts --think Bacon Pecan Brittle and "Pig in the Orchard" Bread Pudding -- Dempsey's knack for all things sweet has made her a familiar name for many Phoenicians.
