I’m a professional chef with over 25 years of experience, and I’m currently an Executive Chef and the owner of a local catering business. I also work as a private chef, bringing restaurant-level technique and thoughtful hospitality directly to your home or event.

I’m classically trained and comfortable with most cuisines at a very high level, with specialties in Southern U.S., French, Japanese, and Italian cooking. I love collaborating with you to build a menu that fits your tastes, your occasion, and your guests.
