I am a Melbourne-based personal chef providing delicious meals in people's homes and for private events.
I draw on over 25 years experience in notable restaurants to create food that is vibrant and well balanced– a celebration of fresh produce and bright flavours.
My professional experience includes fine-dining restaurants, cooking for private clients, catering for bespoke events, as well as recipe development for cookbooks.
