Chef At Home in Berlin
Get to know me better

The kitchen is my creative studio where allow my ideas to run free.
My culinary journey started in Cape Town South Africa where I am originally from. I grew up in a culture where good quality food and wine was celebrated.
After leaving high school I worked in a respected restaurant in Cape Town where I trained under the head chef.
My journey for cooking halted as I pivoted into IT. After many years in the tech industry, I realised that I needed to come back to my first love - food.
I currently work part time as a private chef and host exclusive culinary experiences in Berlin Germany.
Each client I’ve worked for has shared the highest praise for my cooking.
I specialise in west European and Mediterranean cuisine. I draw influence from various countries in these regions and incorporate some of my own Capetonian food culture into my flavour profiles.
I ensure I cater to my clients specific food requests and needs and try to accommodate any sort of palate.
