I create calm, tailored private dining rooted in Southern Creole tradition—elevated with Mediterranean and Spanish influence, live-fire technique, and peak-season ingredients.

I’m a Pacific Northwest–based personal chef with over a decade of professional culinary experience. My cooking is grounded in Southern Creole traditions, layered with Mediterranean and Spanish influences, and shaped by live-fire technique, seasonality, and exceptional ingredients.

I specialize in fully customized private dining—from intimate multi-course dinners to refined group gatherings—built around your preferences, dietary needs, and the atmosphere you want to create. I bring calm, intentional, detail-driven execution so hosting feels effortless and every guest feels cared for.

My secret isn’t really a secret: love. I love what I do, why I do it, and I keep it as traditional as grandma did.

What you can expect when you dine with me

Cooking is my way to serve

For me, cooking is a lifelong calling: I show up to serve, to care, and to create meaningful moments through food.

I learned by doing—and I never stop evolving

I learned to cook through curiosity and failure. I’ve never been confined to one style, and I’m always evolving—refining technique, expanding flavor, and staying open to what each table needs.

Love, tradition, and intention in every course

My philosophy is simple: I lead with love, respect tradition the way grandma did, and bring that heart into every detail—from the first bite to the last.
