My Services

My work sits at the intersection of food, creativity, and operations. As a chef, consultant, and content creator, I bring both hands-on culinary experience and strategic thinking to everything I do. Whether I’m cooking in your home, advising on your business, or helping shape how your work shows up in the world, my goal is always the same: to make food feel thoughtful, sustainable, and deeply integrated into your life or business.

Private Chef
Services

Lending support to the home kitchen cooks and enjoyers.

  • Daily, weekly, and monthly services available.

    In ongoing private chef work, I focus on developing a deep understanding of my clients’ palates and preferences. While I’m always happy to take requests, the goal is to get to a place where you don’t have to think about what you want to eat at all. When I know your tastes well, I can cook intuitively and consistently deliver food you’ll genuinely love, without decision fatigue.

  • For the moments worth celebrating

    One of my favorite ways to celebrate is by bringing people together around a table of great food. In New York City, hosting at your favorite restaurant isn’t always practical, so I love helping clients bring that elevated experience into their own homes.

    From birthdays and bachelorette dinners to intimate date nights and holidays, I approach private dining as both a culinary and hospitality experience. My goal is to make your event feel thoughtful, seamless, and truly special, so you can focus on your guests and the moment.

  • I’m selective about taking on individual meal prep clients, but I work closely with Dishin’ and confidently recommend them to anyone in NYC looking for high-quality, ready-to-eat meals.

    Dishin’s food is all organic, seed oil-free, hyper-seasonal, and locally sourced. It’s private chef-quality cooking, delivered at the beginning of the week, ready to integrate into your day-to-day life.

Food Business
Consulting

Lending support to the professional chefs and restaurant owners.

  • I work with food businesses across New York City as a chef, strategist, and creative partner. Because I’ve spent time in kitchens, behind the screen, and in front of the camera, I understand how closely food, brand, operations, and storytelling are intertwined. I’m able to zoom in on the details while still keeping the bigger picture in view, which is often where things start to feel stuck.

    My approach is holistic and highly collaborative. Food businesses rarely need support in just one area, and I know how limiting it can be to work with someone who only sees a small piece of the picture. I aim to function as an extension of your team, filling in gaps, clarifying priorities, and helping you think more clearly about what’s next.

    At its core, my work is about building systems that support growth without losing the passion, personality, and point of view that made you start your business in the first place.

  • Helping you articulate what makes your business special, whether that’s highlighting a new dish, sharing your origin story, or translating your values into clear, engaging content. I guide you through what to say, how to say it, and handle editing in a way that feels natural and true to you.

  • For menu launches, website updates, or when you just need a solid library of visuals to pull from. I orchestrate shoots that make sense for how you actually operate, so you walk away with content that’s will not only highlight your menu, but will also strengthen your brand.

  • A second set of eyes on your menu, with both creativity and practicality in mind. This can mean tightening a menu that’s gotten too big, reworking dishes to reduce costs, swapping ingredients to reflect seasonality or current trends, or making sure what looks good on paper actually works in service.

  • For businesses that want a more consistent and thoughtful online presence without hiring in-house. This can include content planning, guidance on what to post and why, and hands-on management when it makes sense. If full management isn’t the right fit, I’m happy to help build a system or connect you with someone I trust.

  • For founders who want a trusted sounding board as they make decisions. This can look like brand clarity, prioritization, and helping you zoom out when everything feels urgent. I’m here to help you think through problems calmly and intentionally, not just react to them.
