Ruby on Rails

I don't think you need to use polymorphism for this.

I'd use STI for users and just keep the very basics in the user
table(profile name, email address, type etc). Then have something like
chef_info and athlete_info tables which contain the rest of the
differing information for each user type. This way you don't have a lot
of nil values in columns in your user table.
