More about me

For me, cooking is...

A passion and creative outlet that just happens to be my career.

I learned to cook at...

Self-taught and within restaurants from some of Philadelphia's top chefs and restaurateurs. Nicholas Elmi, Marc Vetri, Ellen Yin and others.

A cooking secret...

While I do use international ingredients, I try to cook local as much as possible because I think that is how we are intended to eat.
