Get to know me better

I’m a private chef with Michelin-star and 5-star hotel experience, and a Student Chef of the Year finalist. I create refined restaurant-quality dining

I’m a private chef with experience in Michelin-starred restaurants and 5-star hotel kitchens, and I was a finalist in Student Chef of the Year. I specialise in creating refined, restaurant-quality dining experiences in private homes, combining classical training with modern, precise execution.

I work with butcher-quality meats and fresh, farm-sourced produce, focusing on bold flavour, seasonality, and high standards of sourcing. My cooking is clean and considered, using quality fats for cooking and olive oil mainly for finishing, to keep dishes light, balanced, and full of natural flavour.

My aim is to deliver an elevated dining experience that feels both personal and restaurant-level, bringing fine dining standards directly to my clients.
