I am a professional chef with over 15 years of experience in the culinary industry. I enjoy sharing both my food and knowledge with others. I have experience ranging from casual to 4 Diamond establishments and am able to prepare many different styles of cooking and cuisines. Originally from the Chicago area, I moved to Rhode Island to attend Johnson & Wales University where I studied Culinary Arts and Foodservice Management.

For me, cooking is...

A true passion and calling. I love everything about the industry and am always excited to learn new techniques and styles of cooking.

I learned to cook at...

Johnson & Wales University as well as on the job at many restaurants and hotels.

A cooking secret...

Is to have fun! It may sound like a cliche, but if you cook with your heart and soul it makes a big difference.

Chef Deborah's reviews

We really enjoyed the dinner that Deborah prepared for us! She accommodated all our needs - esp by making some slightly different, simpler meals for our 2 younger children. All the dishes were delicious, and it seemed that she had put a lot of time into preparing them for us. We would definitely hire Deborah again and highly recommend her to others!

Deborah did a great job. We had many dietary restrictions, but she managed to create a fantastic meal with flavor and flare. She and her husband Joe (the server) were personable and polite and made our 2 young grandsons feel special with dishes prepared just for them. We had a wonderfully relaxing and enjoyable time and would highly recommend them.
