Some background
I graduated from culinary school in 1998 and have worked professionally for over 13 years. While working at Hornblower Cruises and Events, I was able to hone my catering skills, which has been an essential part of my personal chef business. My fine dining credits come from two established San Diego classics: Le Fountainbleu at the renowned Westgate Hotel, and the Bradley-Ogden-inspired menus of Bertrand at Mr. A’s.
I’m fifth generation San Diego born and raised, but spent five years in the San Francisco Bay area. Although it was tough to leave such a foodie culture, it’s great to be cooking back home again. I reside in Spring Valley and know there is a need in this community for good, fresh, organic food services. I hold my community close to my heart and want to do my part in bringing great food to East County homes. However, I often travel throughout the county.
I am happily married with a big friendly dog, and two boys. I enjoy eating, drinking and being merry with family and friends. When I’m not cooking, you can always find me outside involved in any and all outdoor activities.
