I’ve been in the restaurant industry since I was 18 and have worked in small towns in rural Kentucky to big hotels in Austin. I was born in Caifornia but consider Texas to be my home, with me living most of my life in New Braunfels.

My specialties are Italian and Mexican, as well as classic American food. I’m not sure where life will take me, but I’ll always be eating good and drinking good wine.

For me, cooking is...

A way to better enjoy the day and spend time with people who’s company you enjoy.

I learned to cook at...

Home with family, YouTube, the internet, TV, restaurants.

A cooking secret...

Cook the food that makes you happy, and enjoy with wine.
