With over 30 years of experience, I have brought together my love for food, wine, and education to create a culinary company that focuses on personal growth in the kitchen. My background in global cuisines allows me to guide you on a tailored culinary adventure, helping you discover your inner chef. Working as a chef at wineries like Justin Winery and Marchesi Winery has given me the opportunity to learn from winemakers and understand the delicate process of turning grapes into wine. This journey has enriched my knowledge of wine and food pairing, and I look forward to sharing this with you. Together, we will explore culinary delights that enhance your palate and spark your passion for cooking.
