I create heartfelt, technique-driven dining experiences inspired by my training in New York and Italy.

I turn classic techniques into warm, memorable meals—made with care and precision.

I studied Culinary Arts at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York (2023–2024), where I built a strong foundation in traditional techniques and professional kitchen standards. I’ve been cooking for my family since I was 12, and this program became my first formal step into professional culinary training.

Before graduating, I completed an internship at Le Jardinier in Manhattan, where I learned fine-dining mise en place, teamwork, and what it truly takes to run a disciplined kitchen. In 2025, I continued my journey in Italy with three months at the Italian Culinary Institute, falling in love with the ingredients, the balance of flavors, and the high standards of regional Italian cuisine—skills I keep refining every day at home.

My secret in the kitchen is organization, food safety, high-quality ingredients, and good tools.

What you can expect when you dine with me

I cook to express myself

Cooking is how I express myself and how I show people I care. For me, cooking is art—I love creating, focusing on the details, and bringing everything together into a final result that feels personal.

I built my skills through real training and practice

I learned to cook at home with my mom and grandma, and I kept improving through my studies at the Institute of Culinary Education, my experience at Le Jardinier, and my time training in Italy.

I rely on discipline behind the scenes

I believe great meals start with strong fundamentals: organization, food safety, high-quality food, and the right tools. That structure lets me cook with confidence and consistency while keeping the experience warm and enjoyable.
