I am a professional chef with an artistic passion for cooking. My love for the craft lies in creating elevated, intentional experiences through food. Growing up, cooking, décor, and plating were the main ways I expressed myself.

I am a free-spirited person who loves trying new things, exploring food, traveling, and discovering different cultures, all of which inspire my approach to cuisine.

For me, cooking is...

Cooking for me is my easel, it brings out my artistic style that can tell a story on a plate through flavors and colors.

I learned to cook at...

ICE - Institute of Culinary Education New York City

A cooking secret...

Is being able to smell ingredients and know they pair well with other ingredients.

We had an amazing dinner. Ameena was so professional and her food was amazing. She was very accommodating to our food restrictions. She was also quite discreet.
