Get to know me better

Personal chef specializing in chef-driven events, elevated comfort food, and immersive culinary experiences that turn good meals into memories.

I’m an executive chef with a career built on leading some of the area’s top restaurants, where I honed my craft, built high-performing kitchens, and developed a food philosophy rooted in quality, consistency, and intention. Alongside my restaurant work, I’ve spent years handling backstage catering for touring artists—an environment that demands precision, adaptability, and complete discretion under pressure.

Today, I bring that experience into chef-driven, highly personalized culinary experiences. My work lives at the intersection of elevated comfort food and thoughtful hospitality, whether I’m hosting an intimate in-home dinner, teaching a hands-on pasta class, or creating custom meal prep tailored to your lifestyle. Every menu is designed around the people at the table, not trends or shortcuts.

From green rooms to dining rooms, I approach every experience the same way: exceptional food, seamless execution, and zero stress for you—so all that’s left is a great meal and a memory worth keeping.
