meet the chef

I didn't grow up cooking and baking alongside an Italian grandmother so I attended culinary school to learn everything I could and am a proud graduate of the Institute of Culinary Education in NYC. A New Jersey native, I have been living in Richmond since 2015 and could not be happier! I love everything RVA has to offer and when I'm not cooking you can find me at a hot yoga class, paddle boarding on the James River, dining at one of the many amazing restaurants in this city, or spending time at home with my family - my favorite activity of all! I am also an Arbonne consultant and live for my daily smoothie packed with superfood supplements to give me the energy I need to get through the day and feel great while doing it. Have any questions for me? Please ask! I am passionate about health, wellness and nutrition, and helping others eat well and feel their best. Life is too short to not enjoy every minute!
