Get to know me better

Cooking for others is the greatest expression of service.

I am a Red Seal Certified Chef du Cuisine with over 30 years of experience. I received my education in Culinary Arts at Algonquin College in Ottawa, Ontario Canada. Much of my training gained through various tenures in Ottawa, Montreal and Cape Cod USA.

I am currently employed as a Private Chef at Garderie Bonne Aventure in Downtown Montreal, cooking for and teaching 60+ children of varying ages. I also work as part of a team of seasoned Chefs catering weddings and events.

I was born and raised in Hamilton Ontario into a large family where cooking, growing their own food and gathering around the dinner table was formative to his upbringing and family dynamic. He believes food and service is sacred and the purpose of a Chef is to draw out and showcase the inherent beauty of the ingredients and provide memorable dining experiences.

I am a retired member of the Canadian Armed Forces serving ten years with an Artillery Unit in Canada, Europe and the Middle East.

I live in Montreal with my wife. I have 2 adult children, 3 grandchildren and the family pug, Mugsy.

I am also an enthusiastic outdoors person who loves to get lost in the mountains and forests.
