Get to know me better

I’m someone who seeks growth, values authenticity, and tries to leave things better than I found them.

I am a multi-faceted being, working in the UAE as a corporate professional with a deep love for cooking having qualified at cookery school in the United Kingdom in 2017. Over the summer's I often provided Private Chef work to HNWI in the UK and I would love to bring this to the UAE now that I live here.

I am passionate about finance, boxing, restaurants and food, music, film and writing.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

My therapy. I never love a moment more than when I see a group gather around a table to dine over something that I have created. My heart sings.

I learned to cook at...

I was fortunate enough to learn by a Michelin Starred Chef when I was growing up. As well as my mother and Cookery School outside of London.

A cooking secret...

The soundtrack that I listen to whilst cooking. Dependent on what the client wishes I will always use music to further inspire the outcome.
