Good food is one of life's greatest simple pleasures. All the more so when prepared from scratch with fresh ingredients. Not only is it a pleasure to eat such food, but also a declaration of what we want and value in the world. In a world that's getting faster every day, good food reminds us to slow down and enjoy the moment. Through my work I seek to provide an experience of just how meaningful the moment can be.

about Me
Through a series of meandering events in my life, I have come to discover that food and cooking are my calling. Although I was drawn to cooking at an early age and have worked in many different kitchens over the years, I never really thought of it as something I'd want to do for a living. A “can't see the forest for the trees” sort of thing, I guess.
Looking back, I can see how it makes sense that I would become what I am today. Connecting the dots of my past outlines the character of who I am and how perfectly it fits with what I'm doing with my life. I get to live my dream of being an alchemist in the kitchen transforming simple ingredients into meaningful experiences and it's been quite a wonderful journey so far.

Thank you. I hope we can have the benefit of your time and skill next summer!”
