Get to know me better

Michelin-trained Italian chef, bringing passion, technique and creativity to every meal.

I am a professional chef, currently working in a Michelin-starred restaurant. I also run a supper club in the Los Angeles area, hosting pop-up events where I create innovative and experimental menus for ticketed dinners. I have had 7+ years of professional experience in cooking, including my time at the world famous Osteria Francescana in Italy. Despite my background in Italian cooking, I love cooking diverse foods from different cuisines- I even have spent several years working at a fine-dining Vietnamese restaurant. I love the opportunity to curate an elevated tasting menu, just as much as I love cooking a rustic family-style feast under the open sky.
