A Ventura County native, Bryan started his career 40 years ago under three different apprenticeships: Italian, German and French. Bryan gravitated to French cuisine, with a focus on pastries and desserts. His career spans from corporate chef, to country club chef, and finally to business owner. He was formally educated at the Institute of Paul Bocuse in Lyon, France. Now, he oversees both Ficelle Artisan Bakery and Café Ficelle.

Born and raised in North Carolina, Jarrett was heavily involved in athletics. In his senior year at Liberty University, he met Bryan Scofield's daughter, Meg. The two married after he graduated with a degree in exercise science.
After several years working as a physical trainer, Jarrett attended European bread-baking school in San Francisco. After this, he participated in a Stage at Terre Blanche Hotel, the most prestigious spa and resort in Tourrettes, France. He became the first non-European to be granted an internship there. From his experience, Jarrett has developed a new style of bread and pastries for Ficelle Artisan Bakery.
