Get to know me better
Over a decade of professional industry experience. I specialize in Korean/Japanese food, but have worked many cuisines. Currently chef at Penny's.
I come from a multicultural background and draw inspiration from my experiences. I have been a food industry professional for over a decade. I have taken the roll of chef, butcher, farm hand, forager and everything in between. Most of my career has been focused in Richmond, VA and San Francisco, CA. I like to travel and see what people are doing with food around the world. I am looking to connect people through food. I run a Japanese/Korean style kushiyaki pop-up time to time with a grill I designed and built . I am head chef at Penny's in Jackson ward currently.
