Born Toronto Canada and grew up cooking with my Swiss grandmother. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be a chef. Since the time I have taken my love for cooking and traveling around the world. Starting in the great country of United States where I went to school at The Art Institute of Minneapolis and got my Bachelors in Culinary Management after that I started at Michael Mina’s Washing D.C Bourbon steak, then transferred to San Francisco at multiple Michael Mina restaurants, there I met my now husband who is french and we moved to France together for four years where I worked at the Michelin star restaurant in The Eiffel Tower “Jules Verne”. But my love for California stayed in my heart and after four years I brought my french husband back to Los Angeles with me where we now reside. There is nothing like the fresh produce and agriculture of California. My style of cooking is farm to table with an asian influence. My style is finesse with a casual touch with my food, flavor and presentation are very important. Meal preparation, I prepare everything for you and deliver to your door. I can customize the menu to your needs. I am a certified Health Coach through IIN and Ecornell, I understand how to specialize to each diet (keto, gluten free, low carb or healthier eating) flavor being the key component. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner or anything in-between. Bon appetit
