Marci Ocampo

At Forgo Bistro, we treat our multi-use studio as a classroom. I lead our STEAM-Based Learning sessions where we use the art of food as a scientific model to explore logic, creativity, and discovery. Without a kitchen or food preparation, we focus entirely on hands-on exploration. I am dedicated to proving that diverse workshops should be accessible to everyone.

My mission is to help our guests find balance. I manage our Tech & Turf Physical Education program, utilizing advanced simulator technology to teach discipline and digital physical coordination. As a Navy veteran, my goal is to provide a structured, host-led environment where students and teams can build confidence and focus.
