I am a chef, writer, story-teller, and public speaker who is passionate about food, family, and friends.

By sharing my thoughts, stories, and perspective of cooking and food I hope to inspire others to discover the simple satisfaction of making a homemade meal and sharing it with others around the table.

I also have a passion for teaching organizations of all shapes and sizes how to develop corporate cultures and work teams that thrive in today's challenging business environment through culinary team building events and keynote speeches.

I love to laugh and often.

Life is good.
