Get to know me better

I curate experiences through the harmonious fusion of ingredients, culture, and creativity, taking you on a journey to Italy!

Born and raised in the enchanting embrace of Venice, Italy, I grew up amidst a tapestry of art, culinary excellence, and the warmth of the locals.

The labyrinthine streets and picturesque canals of my hometown instilled in me a profound appreciation for aesthetics and a deep connection to the pleasures of fine cuisine.

However, my journey took an unexpected turn when I ventured across the Atlantic to New York City to pursue a career in architecture. I loved it but, I soon realized that my true passion was cooking.

Guided by my unwavering love for creating exceptional experiences, I embarked on a transformative path, channeling my artistic sensibilities and gastronomic heritage into a thriving catering company. This endeavor led me to don the apron of a private chef and event coordinator, where I meticulously crafted unforgettable moments through the harmonious fusion of flavors, ambiance, and meticulous planning.

From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, I have woven together my Venetian upbringing, architectural inspiration, and culinary finesse to orchestrate events that are a symphony of delight for the senses. With each dish I prepare and every event I curate, I pay homage to my roots while embracing the cosmopolitan energy of New York, creating a unique blend of cultures and experiences that define my journey as a dedicated chef and event visionary.
