I am a Chef working in Kingston, most recently I was at Hotel Kinsley and Lunch Nightly. Right before moving up here to head the kitchen at The Pines in Mt. Tremper (October of 2019), I worked at The NoMad Hotel in Manhattan for a year as a line cook where I learned many innovative, modern techniques with food and honed the skills I'd learned since I started my career at age 18. I also have pastry experience from my time working at District Social. Most recently, I was the Chef De Cuisine at Sonder, and after The Pines I was Co-Executive chef at Lunch Nightly. I love making food that is vegan/gluten free/dietary restriction friendly if you, your family or dinner guests need to be accommodated and I am happy to assist!

For me, cooking is...

A way to connect with others, as well as a passion and form of self expression.

I learned to cook at...

The NoMad Hotel (NYC), my parents kitchens, The Dutch (NYC), District Social, Momosan Ramen and Sake (NYC), friend's aunt's kitchens, Lex Brass

A cooking secret...

Understanding how products want to be prepared and doing so in a respectful manner
