     Through years of travel and hands-on experience, I have taught myself all the essentials I need to provide you with a divine dining experience. I have an ambitious spirit that has brought me around the globe to places such as Mexico, England, Tanzania, Ghana & all over the United States.  My travels have exposed me to an endless amount of cultures and cuisines that inspire my work. I developed a passion for cooking by working under my two Grandmothers as I was growing up.

 

Since I was just seven years old, I have been learning and cherishing generational recipes that I hope to pass down myself. When I was in high school, I began to develop my entrepreneurial skills by selling breakfast sandwiches to my classmates. Knowing that I had a role in helping others start their days off with a warm meal and a full stomach made me feel great. it put big smiles on their faces. 

This nontraditional career path has been the perfect journey for me. I got to learn how a restaurant works from the ground, up.  Once a dishwasher, learning my way around a kitchen, now a private chef, dedicated to serving a meal made with love. 

.

After all these years dedicating myself to the culinary craft, I have worked privately for professional athletes, as a Chef for National Geographic, under Chef Gordan Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen in Washington D.C., and at a number of four-star resorts. Under National Geographic, I worked on a cruise line that taught me the meaning of hard work.
