Get to know me better

Private Chef with a decade of experience creating tailored menus, sourcing premium ingredients, and delivering exceptional dining experiences.

I’m Marta Patterson, a dedicated Private Chef with over a decade of experience creating bespoke culinary experiences tailored to diverse dietary needs and preferences. I bring a unique blend of culinary artistry and 20 years of executive-level administrative expertise, ensuring exceptional organization and attention to detail in every aspect of my work. Fluent in English, Italian, and Spanish, I excel in building strong client relationships while delivering unforgettable meals and events.

Outside the kitchen, I’m a proud mom of three, an avid gardener who finds joy in cultivating fresh ingredients, and a dog lover with two wonderful canine companions. My passion for nurturing extends beyond my family and garden to crafting meals that inspire and delight. For me, cooking isn’t just a profession—it’s a way to connect, create, and bring people together.
