TMCC EPIC is your source for lifelong learning and personal enrichment, and, at the heart of the program is our instructors. From experts in the field to passionate hobbyists, EPIC instructors are changing the lives of students in our community by sharing their knowledge with others! Featured on the cover of our Summer 2026 course guide, we’re pleased to highlight Mitch Nguyen.

Drawing from his Thai heritage, EPIC Instructor Mitch Nguyen blends flavor and passion, reminding students to “smile before you eat,” as it conveys a feeling of appreciation, not just for the food on your plate, but also the people you share it with.

A graduate of CIA (The Culinary Institute of America) in New York, Mitch spent two decades as a personal chef and restaurant owner/operator. Driven by his desire to promote health through clean eating, Mitch now serves as the Director of Food and Beverage for a local senior-living facility, fondly sharing that “every day, they show me their life story.”

This summer season, Mitch will be teaching High-End Chinese Cuisine and Thai Grande Cuisine in EPIC’s new teaching kitchen located at the TMCC Meadowood Center. To learn more, or to register for one of EPIC’s 160+ classes, visit epic.tmcc.edu or call (775)829-9010.
