The Agio family
Donnie Gonzales - Sous-chef
Donnie Gonzales’s journey shows the power of persistence and growth. Starting his career at the age of sixteen in corporate and franchise pizza chains, Gonzales worked across various industries, including warehouse and trucking jobs, before returning to the kitchen. These diverse roles provided him with invaluable lessons in hard work, clear communication, and attention to detail, all of which have shaped his approach to cooking and life.
Inspired by his mom’s hard work and cooking for family gatherings, Gonzales developed a passion for making great food that brings people together. In 2018, Gonzales moved to Brunswick, GA, along with his wife, Alexis, and two daughters and joined the team at Mellow Mushroom on St. Simons Island. Then, wanting to take his skills to the next level, he applied for a line cook position at Tramici Restaurant. Working under Chef Adam Jones for three years allowed Gonzales to develop his expertise working pizza, sauté, and garde manager stations. This experience set the stage for his current role as the a.m. sous-chef at Agio, where he’s contributing to the launch of a new restaurant.
His story is a great reminder that with hard work, dedication, and a belief that anything is possible, success is within reach.
