H Jackson Events

High end catering company with customizable menus and services.

Hollie Jo Jackson is the Chef and Owner of H Jackson Events, a boutique catering firm that offers elite and customizable private dinners and events. HJE is based in Monterey, California, but also travels throughout the state and across the country.

Chef Hollie is originally from the Pacific Northwest and is a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu in Portland, Oregon. She did much of her training at a luxury hotel outside of San Diego, as well as at a fine dining restaurant in Seattle, before settling in Monterey in 2014. Chef Hollie was part of the opening team at 1833 Restaurant (now called Stokes Adobe), and she worked as part of the core team planning, organizing, and implementing both Pebble Beach Food & Wine Festival and Los Angeles Food & Wine. She then spent seven years honing her skills with large local catering companies as both an event planner and as an executive chef until she decided to launch her own, self-titled H Jackson Events in 2021. HJE specializes in curating the perfect combination of food, atmosphere, and service for any event. Chef Hollie’s focus on sourcing, by utilizing her long-standing relationships with local purveyors, combined with her creative presentation style and attention to detail enable her to create memorable events that showcase the best of the Monterey area.
