Meet the people behind the plate

At Bosq, every dish carries the hands and hearts of the people who make it. This is the team shaping your experience.

Barclay Dodge

Chef/Owner – One MICHELIN Star

Chef Barclay Dodge grew up among Aspen’s mountains, where his passion for cooking started in his grandmother’s kitchen. Years later, after honing his craft in Michelin-starred restaurants and at El Bulli, he returned home to bring the flavors of the forest to every plate at Bosq. His approach is grounded in seasonality, foraging, and an unwavering dedication to local roots—creating a dining experience that feels both wild and welcoming.

Recognition:

  • One MICHELIN Star 2023, 2024 & 2025
  • James Beard Semifinalist 2023 & 2024
  • DiRoNA Award Winner

Molly Dodge

Co-Owner & Director of Hospitality

Molly’s love for gathering people started at home, where dinner parties and celebrations were a family tradition. At Bosq, she brings that same warmth and generosity to every guest—creating a space that feels like an extension of Aspen’s vibrant community. Whether she’s curating the dining room atmosphere or greeting guests by name, Molly’s presence is felt in every detail.

“My hope is that you feel at home the moment you walk in.”

Nick Heileman’s love for food started at an early age as he was raised by a chef, his mother.

With a breadth and depth of experience, Nick has worked in restaurants from dishwashing to bartending. Climbing the ranks and refining his skills Nick has earned himself a Sommelier Certification, along with notable positions with restaurant groups such as Hillstone.

Nick brings a refined palette for pairing wines and spirits that complement the flavors of Bosq. During your evening at Bosq expect his style of hospitality to engage you from anecdotal stories to in-depth culinary knowledge.

Natalie Hayden has always had a passion for hospitality which she attributes to her southern roots.

Shortly after graduating from the University of Louisville she found herself drawn to the mountains of Colorado pursuing a career within hospitality. After residing in the mountains of Winter Park, Colorado and thriving at work she knew she needed to find a home where she could surround herself with others with the same craving for growth and drive to make every evening memorable. Since joining the BOSQ team in 2021 she has made it her mission to not meet a stranger and for everyone who walks through the door finds themselves leaving as family with stories to share.

Assistant General Manager

Natalie Hayden

Jeff is a self taught chef and has been cooking for fifteen years.  He is an expert forager and always out in the woods when he’s not in the kitchen. He comes to work constantly with something fun that he found from the forest. He even has a degree in mycology (study of fungi, mushrooms).  We have titled him as the Koji and Fermentation King of the restaurant and is always experimenting with new flavors to bring to life.

Jeff is an Aspen Valley Ski & Snowboard Club ski instructor (sends 20 foot cliffs like nobody’s business) and you can find him skiing in the backcountry on most wintery days.

Jeff loves spending his off seasons learning and growing from other world class chefs and restaurants. This past year he did stages at SingleThread in Healdsburg (3 MICHELIN stars and no. 68 in world) Quintonil in Mexico City (2 MICHELIN stars no. 9 in world).  Jeff is a huge light in our kitchen and in our BOSQ family.
