Some of my earliest memories are in the kitchen—baking Swedish gingerbread cookies with my grandmother each Christmas and cooking Greek dishes alongside my mom. Those moments sparked a lifelong love of food and the way it brings people together.
After a trip to Europe inspired me to pursue cooking professionally, I studied Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management at American River College, graduating in 2019. I went on to work with some of Northern California’s top personal chefs before starting my own business.
I’ve had the opportunity to cook for professional athletes and celebrities, and I’ve even traveled to Iceland to cook.
When I’m not in the kitchen, I enjoy playing the piano and cello, hiking in the Sierra foothills, and spending time with my husband and daughter.
I look forward to creating a meal that brings your friends and family together.
