About the Chef

I am a proud graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute for Health & Culinary Arts Chef Training Program in New York City, and am pleased to offer the true goodness of foods. Adept in natural foods, which highlights seasonal, wholesome organic ingredients free of artificial additives, with an emphasis of nutritious and well-balanced meals. Sounds healthy? It is! But don’t be alarmed as the meals are guaranteed to be tasty and full of flavor as well. Healthy cuisine does not have to imply bland and boring food. As a huge fan of the "little ones", my specialty is adapting adult recipes into fun and nourishing fare for kids; as well as, converting traditional baked treats into healthier and whole grain alternatives.  I also specialize in Diabetic cooking.

I am a contributor for Edible Queens Magazine with a monthly Supper Club inspired by the neighborhoods of Queens. As for my cooking instruction, I have worked with Home Cooking NYC and I have assisted many recreational classes at the Natural Gourmet and the New School Culinary Arts Program and have given one-on-one cooking instruction to a number of private clients ranging from beginners to advanced, brides-to-be, newlyweds and a few nannies in Spanish. I also volunteer for the Sylvia Center where I teach children the joys of seasonal eating. I am a member of Slow Food NYC and Women Chefs & Restaurateurs.  

Whether you are short on time or would like to improve and expand your knowledge in the kitchen or have a gathering catered – you should definitely consider a Chef with an enthusiasm for food as nourishment as well as celebration!
