My Approach

     My inspiration for creating new and interesting dishes comes from the seasonal availability of local produce first and foremost.. but could also include traveling, eating out, reading and sometimes just passing ideas throughout the day. That’s what keeps it fun. I’m able to explore my creativity through the art of cooking.

     My style reflects French, Italian, and Asian Cuisines with twists and playfulness. Whenever possible, I like to combine ingredients from the farmer's market with whatever might be in the fridge or pantry. That’s truly where the magic happens and the wheels start turning. That’s the challenge I take on every day. "I have these ingredient's, now what can I do with them?”  I believe the biggest test of a great chef is  keeping things simple but the bar set high.

     I have completed my Bachelor's Degree from The Culinary Institute of America, and worked at Michelin starred restaurants across the United States.. but what seperates me is the relentless pursuit of the perfect bite paired with my respect and love for local, in-season ingredients.

     I’m always open to opportunities, collaborations and special events whenever and wherever they might be.  I love to travel and explore new adventures.  Let me know if you have something coming up that I can help you with.
