Get to know me better

Passionate about food, passionate about culture, passionate about people.

From over a decade in Michelin star and World's 50 Best kitchens around the world to environmental sustainability projects and awards and restaurant openings I've never waivered in my dedication to perfecting my technical skills and expanding my knowledge. I have worked in New York, Bogota, Barcelona and Medellin studying American, Latin, Italian, French, Spanish, and Japanese cuisines.

Food has always been my passion. It is the best way to learn about different cultures. Being able to share with others all I've learned through my years of traveling the world's kitchens is very special. Food is at the center of people's most important moments no matter where in the world you are. It is important to me to contribute to these moments for people.
