Get to know me better

Dynamic chef with over 12 years of experience ranging from catering to private chef and in recent years restaurant chef in Philadelphia.

I am a professional chef with over 12 years experience where I have been a business owner as well as worked for many restaurants, clients, and other establishments.

I most recently led 3 different restaurant openings in Philadelphia as the Executive Chef and have worked for some of the best chefs in the city. I excel at a wide range of cuisines, but have a passion for seafood and European influences.

Restaurants I have worked at:

Fork

Royal Boucherie

Fiorella

Giuseppe & Sons

Filter Club

Post Haste

Pearl's On The Corner

I owned my meal prep and catering business before I began work in Philadelphia in 2018. Prior to that I was a chef for a private client. In recent years I have done dinners, multi-course tasting menus, and other pop-ups and events to supplement any other chef work I am doing.
