Title Director of Yum-o! Organization; Director, Special Projects Company Rachael Ray Bio Andrew "Kappy" Kaplan loves food. A professionally trained chef, these days you'll find him on the road talking up kids and cooking as Director of Yum-o! and keeping special projects running smoothly for Rach, all the while taking a bite here and a bite there as he samples and shares local flavor from across the country, from taco trucks to fancier finds.
