Get to know me better
Private chef on land and sea. Well versed in many cuisines and dietary restrictions. Love traveling for short and long term gigs. Let's get cooking!
I am a chef with over 23 years of experience across a wide range of culinary environments. My career has taken me from fine dining restaurants to private charter yachts, and across North America providing personalized culinary services for athletes, celebrities, and private clients alike.
I am well-versed in both elevated and casual cuisine, and experienced in accommodating a variety of dietary requirements without compromising on flavor, presentation, or quality. Adaptability and attention to detail are at the core of my approach, allowing me to tailor each menu to the unique needs and preferences of my clients.
Cooking has taken me on incredible journeys, and I am always inspired by the next opportunity to create something memorable. My goal is to deliver thoughtful, high-quality dining experiences wherever my culinary path may lead.
