About me...
​
Thanks for visiting my page, checking out my portfolio, and learning more about me! First things first, my name is Beau Ellis Breedlove (yes, Breedlove is my given name). As you can see, I’m a fitness buff, model, and men’s physique competitor. There’s more to my zeitgeist than that though! I actually started my career path as a concert classical pianist. Self taught, and endlessly passionate about the romantic classics, I became an accomplished pianist by 18. Fortunately, favor shone on me at a young age, and I was given a contract working as a pianist for Norwegian Cruise Lines just weeks after my 18th birthday. From there, I eventually ended up living in Michigan, where again, good fortune and a strong work ethic led me to some fantastic new opportunities. While in Michigan I helped open two new restaurants, one with celebrity chef Joey Santos and celebrity model Janice Dickinson. Another, with an investor from Chicago. In both scenarios, I managed all front of house hiring and training operations. Finally, I found myself back in my home state, Oregon. There, I settled down in Portland, where I married and now have three gorgeous daughters. Since moving back to the Northwest, I’ve opened and sold a French restaurant, where I managed all operations, and performed as head chef. After selling the restaurant, I moved my focus to writing and fitness, publishing two books in under a year. The first, an autobiography, “Musings on a Young Life”. The second, a culinary and entertaining guide based on my restaurant, “Mon Vie”. Please feel free to contact me with any inquiries, or to learn more about upcoming projects.
