I’m a seasoned private chef with a passion for delivering exceptional culinary experiences. My cooking draws from Mediterranean, American, Caribbean, Mexican, Latin American, Spanish, and Continental traditions, blending vibrant flavors and disciplined technique into meals that feel both elevated and welcoming. I trained at Johnson & Wales and refined my craft through high-level kitchens and internships, including Michelin-starred restaurants in France, Italy, and the US. I love creating with sustainable game meats when the menu calls for it, and I bring the same precision to intimate dinners and larger celebrations—always tailoring the experience to what you want.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in United States?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 174 USD, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Italian, Latin American, Chef's special, Seafood/Fish, Local and Mediterranean. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in United States?

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Friends gathering and Romantic night. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.
