Get to know me better

Passionate chef inspired by seasonal ingredients, live fire cooking, and creating memorable, locally driven dining experiences.

I'm a passionate and detail-driven chef with a love for seasonal cooking, live fire techniques, and creating meaningful experiences through food. My journey in the culinary world has taken me from high-paced restaurant kitchens to hands-on farm work, and I’ve found my niche in combining both crafting dishes that are rooted in place, purpose, and seasonality.

Over the years, I’ve developed a strong foundation in everything from recipe development and menu planning to ingredient sourcing and kitchen operations. I’ve worked closely with local farms, harvested my own ingredients, and cooked over open flames using nothing but a wood-fire. Whether I’m designing a menu for a private dinner or preparing a multi-course meal for a community gathering, my focus is always on quality, intention, and connection.

Food, to me, is about more than just flavor—it’s about storytelling, sustainability, and sharing something real. I love collaborating with others, staying organized in the chaos of the kitchen, and continually learning new techniques and traditions. If I’m not cooking, I’m probably out in the garden, flipping through cookbooks, or dreaming up the next seasonal menu.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

a form of connection. It's how I express creativity, care, and culture-transforming raw ingredients into experiences that nourish both body and soul.

I learned to cook at...

I attended Institute of Culinary Education in Manhattan and have trained at various restaurants throughout New England.

A cooking secret...

My secret in the kitchen is cooking with intention — letting the seasons, the fire, and the story behind each ingredient guide every dish I create.
