Heath Hawk Cameron Davis Joins Sear

Cameron followed the Rockwall culinary program and their competitive team of 2018 to second place in the nation which kicked off his career. From there he attended Sullivan University in Louisville, Kentucky, while working at one of the top hotels in the city, The Brown Hotel. He then worked in a fine-dining wine bar where he was able to expand his knowledge on various wines before moving back to his home state of Texas.

He moved to Houston and worked as a sous chef for a time, then wanted to elevate his knowledge with the understanding of the culinary industry by working as a fine dining waiter, barback, and bartender at Post Oak Grill. Moving back to Rockwall in 2022, he began working in downtown Dallas at the prestigious restaurant, Monarch, under Executive Chef Eric Dreyer.

The opportunity at Sear Steakhouse has finally given him the chance to give back to the community that created him as well as embrace the Rockwall-Heath rivalry. Through that rivalry and collaboration with Chef Marcus, he was inspired to develop new desserts by following his heart and the desire to bring a smile to everyone he meets.
