I turn restaurant-level cooking into an intimate, personal dining experience.

I’m a fine-dining chef with 12+ years of experience across the West Coast, including Chef de Cuisine roles in LA and Seattle and pastry work in Michelin-starred restaurants. With classical French training and a deep foundation in both savory and pastry, I create meals that feel refined, exciting, and full of flavor.

I’m attentive and personable, and I design each menu around what you love—whether that means accommodating dietary needs, highlighting seasonal ingredients, or building a full experience from the first bite to dessert. I also cook with sustainability in mind, minimizing waste and letting ethically sourced ingredients shine.

Cooking is my life—I’ve spent years devoted to perfecting my craft and finding myself in kitchens.

What you can expect when I cook for you

I cook with purpose and creativity

Cooking is my life, and I bring that dedication to every detail—from bold flavor combinations to thoughtful technique—so each course feels intentional and memorable.

I learned by cooking everywhere that matters

I learned to cook at home with my family, then in culinary school, and most of all on the job in demanding fine-dining kitchens—experience that helps me execute confidently in any private setting.

I believe in respect for ingredients

My secret in the kitchen is cleaning as I go and making every part of the ingredient I’m using shine—because great food comes from care, restraint, and zero-waste mindset.
