Chef At Home In Seattle
Get to know me better
Globally inspired, locally sourced cuisine is our north star. We specialize in bespoke events, thoughtful weekly meal prep, and cozy cooking classes
I have been lucky enough to be in the restaurant industry for over 15 years and a personal chef for 5. I studied at the Culinary Institute of America in New York and used that as a springboard to deep dive into the wide world of food.
I have worked in fine dining, catering, banquets and more all while broadening my knowledge on global cuisines through extensive travel. I pride myself in being able to execute even the most obscure dishes and elevate even everyday meals into something truly magical. Good food should sustain, provoke thought, and bring joy to those who enjoy it.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
The lens through which I explore the world. No matter where you are in the world just follow the smell of cooking and you will find community.
I learned to cook at...
Culinary school (CIA) gave me a foundation as did hovering at the tables of my Iranian aunts. I continue to learn through peers, books, and travel.
A cooking secret...
Treat your ingredients and guests with care and respect. And don’t forget cooking should be fun!
