Get to know me better
Private chef dedicated to creating unforgettable dining experiences with exceptional ingredients and personalized service
Based in the vibrant Bay Area, I am a professional chef with over a decade of experience crafting exceptional dining experiences. My culinary journey began with a formal education at a prestigious culinary school, followed by invaluable experience in some of the world's most renowned Michelin-starred restaurants across New York, Spain, Italy, and San Francisco. Working in esteemed establishments such as Le Bernardin in New York, Arzak in Spain, Osteria Francescana in Italy, and Atelier Crenn in San Francisco, I refined my skills, mastered diverse culinary techniques, and developed a deep respect for the art of fine dining.
Driven by a passion to bring restaurant-quality cuisine into the comfort of people's homes, I founded my private chef business with a singular vision: to create unforgettable dining moments, tailored to each client's unique tastes and preferences. Whether it's an intimate private dinner, a grand celebration, or weekly meal services designed for busy lifestyles, I pride myself on delivering bespoke culinary experiences that elevate every occasion.
My expertise spans across:
Private Dining & Events: Custom-tailored menus and impeccable service for memorable gatherings.
Weekly Meal Services: Thoughtfully crafted meals that are delicious, balanced, and convenient.
Full-Time & Part-Time Chef Services: Personalized culinary support for individuals and families.
Cooking Classes: Hands-on, engaging sessions to inspire home cooks and food enthusiasts.
Consulting: Expert guidance for culinary businesses, from menu development to operational efficiency.
With a deep love for seasonal, high-quality ingredients and a fusion of global flavors, I strive to create dishes that are not only visually stunning but also nourish the soul. My approach is simple yet refined—balancing tradition with innovation to bring warmth and sophistication to every plate.
