Get to know me better
Luxury private dining with handcrafted menus, curated ingredients, and a refined touch inspired by mountain and city elegance.
For over three decades, I’ve dedicated my career to creating extraordinary dining experiences defined by craftsmanship, precision, and passion. My background spans fine-dining kitchens, luxury events, and private in-home dinners where every detail matters—from the first aroma to the final presentation. Each menu is built entirely from scratch using the highest-quality local ingredients, curated to reflect the season and the occasion. Whether it’s an intimate wedding, a multi-course mountain retreat, or a private celebration among friends, I bring the refinement of restaurant-level cuisine to the comfort of your table. My philosophy is simple: exceptional ingredients, handcrafted technique, and an elegant experience that lingers long after the last course.
