Private Chef Services

I have over 15 years experience working with individuals and families providing in-home or drop-off cooking services, dinner parties, holiday dinners and special events, I know how to work with professionalism and discretion to meet the culinary and dietary needs of people with demanding lives. 

Customized Meal Planning

Whether clients have dietary restrictions, health and wellness goals, allergies, or specific tastes, together we always come up with a plan that works and food that is delicious!

Interactive Cooking Classes

Interested in learning to cook for yourself or your family? Maybe host a group cooking class in your home kitchen to celebrate a special event? I create fun and accessible class curriculums that will take cooking from mystery to mastery in no time! A fun and interactive idea for a birthday, anniversary, bachelor or bachelorette party, team building event or kids' activity. Ask me how to organize a kids' cooking camp in your home for your child and a group of their friends!

Full Fridge Service

Imagine opening your fridge. It's clean and well-organized. Inside is a week's worth of delicious, wholesome food that you didn't have to shop for, cook, or clean up in order to make it happen! 

Full Fridge Service is my way of providing a once-a-week solution for busy individuals or families that is more affordable than a full-time private chef, but still delivers a high-quality, customized service. This service can include:

  • Personal Shopper Service: We shop for, deliver and put away your personal shopping list for all the food and beverage staples you like to have on hand for the week.
     

  • Personalized Weekly Prepared Foods: We design a custom menu of entrees and sides, breakfast, dinner or lunch items that can be cooked on-site in your kitchen, or off-site and delivered.

French Culinary Institute
Professional Culinary Arts Program

Classically-trained in the French tradition, this education is the technical basis of all my cooking and flavor development. I'm proud to have learned to be a pro with legends like Jacques Pepin and Alain Sailac at FCI.

Primal Health Institute
Food and Wellness Coach Certification

I walk the talk! I've lived an organic and wellness lifestyle most of my adult life, even when it wasn't trendy. This certification helped me to validate my life experience of "cook well, eat well, live well" and make me even more committed to share this knowledge with others.

Chopped Champion
Food Network

If there were ever a test for "grace under pressure," competing on Food Network's Chopped against three other chefs for the title and the $10,000 prize would be an apt one! I was the oldest chef by far that day but it didn't stop me from creating amazing dishes that won over the pro chef judges and won me the title of Chopped Champion. A highlight of my culinary carreer!!
