Private Chef | Refined Comfort Cuisine | Intimate Dining Experiences

I'm Chef QD, a classically trained chef with over 15 years of culinary experience, blending Southern soul with refined, elevated plating. My cooking style is rooted in comfort, intention, and bold flavor—tailored to fit everything from intimate dinners to luxury weekend retreats.

As a culinary artist, I've been dedicated to this craft long before it was a social media trend. Cooking runs in my blood—both of my parents cooked in the military, and I grew up watching my grandmother work magic in the kitchen. Inspired by the chefs I saw on the Food Network, I knew at just nine years old that I wanted to be a chef, and I made it happen.

I specialize in private dining for small groups, plated tastings, and personalized brunch buffets. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a retreat, or just want a meal that feels like a warm memory, I bring calm, care, and creativity to your table creating unforgettable meals that blend passion, precision, and creativity.

Lets make your next meal unforgettable!
