Get to know me better
I’m a passionate private chef who loves making people happy through creative, delicious meals tailored to your taste and comfort.
Hey there! I’m a private chef who truly pours my heart, soul, and a lot of passion into everything I put on a plate.
My journey with food actually started on the academic side, with a Bachelor’s degree in Food Engineering and a Master’s in Hospitality Management. That background gave me a deep understanding of the science behind food—but for me, cooking is so much more than just a formula.
I really cut my teeth and learned the hustle in some amazing, high-pressure kitchens. I worked at Hibiscus at Delapre Abbey, where I was part of the team that chased down and achieved a 2 AA Rosette standard, and spent valuable time managing high-end establishments across England and Romania .
One of the absolute biggest milestones of my life was landing an internship at Quique Dacosta’s 3 Michelin-star restaurant. Working under a master like him completely blew my mind and taught me the fine art of avant-garde techniques, breathtaking presentation, and pure ingredient harmony.
Today, my absolute favourite thing to do is bring that level of magic right into your home. I specialize in designing custom, multi-course tasting menus that tell a story. Because of my background, I also hold a Level 3 Food Safety certificate and a WSET Level 2 Award in Wines, meaning I don't just cook for you—I curate the whole evening, right down to the perfect wine pairings.
I'm adaptable, obsessed with seasonal ingredients, and entirely focused on making sure you and your guests have a relaxed, fun, and absolutely delicious night.
