About Me
Food has always been a love language for me. An adventurous eater and creative cook, I naturally found my path in private dining. Originally from Los Angeles, I’ve called New York City home for the past five years after graduating from Sarah Lawrence College.
At Sarah Lawrence, I balanced a demanding academic load with four years as captain of the women’s soccer team, earning multiple conference honors, including Scholar-Athlete of the Year—an experience that shaped my leadership and discipline.
As a private chef in NYC, I manage everything from weekly meal prep and casual lunches to multi-course dinners and large-scale events. My work blends creativity, precision, and hospitality—I’m not just cooking meals; I’m curating experiences. Whether crafting a seasonal menu or executing a last-minute party, I thrive on the balance of hustle, detail, and genuine care.


My passion for cooking comes from a desire to fuel my body effectively—with food that tastes great and supports performance, recovery, and long-term health. Living an active lifestyle has shown me how powerful nutrition can be for both physical and mental well-being, turning cooking from a hobby into a tool for optimizing energy and strength.
This philosophy guides my work with clients. I create meals and nutrition plans that fit their goals and lifestyles—whether they’re training, managing stress, or simply striving to feel better. My focus is on bridging functionality and flavor, proving that healthy eating can be both practical and satisfying.
Ultimately, my goal is to empower people to make food choices that align with their goals and to show how enjoyable and sustainable healthy eating can be.
