Get to know me better

Brining people together with one taste at a time

A Brazilian chef passionate about crafting elevated comfort food with Latin flavors and global influences. I love creating dishes that feel familiar yet thoughtful — where simplicity is honored and technique works quietly in the background to let flavor shine.

Every menu I design is personal, thoughtfully built around the people I’m cooking for and the experience they want to enjoy. As a private chef, I value presence as much as precision, working with calm focus, cleanliness, and discretion to create seamless in-home dining experiences where clients feel fully taken care of.
