Get to know me better

I respect tradition but am not afraid to evolve it. I value quality ingredients, thoughtful technique, and above all, the people I'm cooking for.

I am a 23 year old professional chef, first hand experiences through my own business and also through working in a professional kitchen. I aspire to serve my customers with my food because the essence of food and serving customers lies in nourishment, connection, and experience.

I believe food should do more than fill you up—it should make you feel something. Whether I’m crafting a classic dish with care or exploring bold new combinations, I approach every recipe with respect, creativity, and attention to detail.As a chef, I value consistency, humility, and learning. The kitchen is where I’m most alive—where precision meets passion, and where I can bring people together, one plate at a time.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is the art and science of preparing food through the application of heat or other methods to make it safe, flavorful, and enjoyable to eat.

I learned to cook at...

I learned to cook through my family, recipes shared by parents, grandparents, or elders carry stories, rituals, and tastes that go beyond ingredients.

A cooking secret...

not just learning how to cook—but inheriting a piece of your family’s history.
