Through my journey as an individual, a wife, a mother and a culinary professional, I’ve thought a lot about what I care about, what I want for myself and my family, and what I would want from others – quality, honesty, inspiration, passion, warmth. I bring those guidelines to my search for the best ingredients, into my kitchen, and into yours.

Cooking for someone is a sign of love, of caring, of sharing. Each pastry, each dinner we make is created with that in mind, and we can’t wait to bring it to your door!

I was born and raised in Santa Monica, California. From the time I was young, I was surrounded by good food and great cooking. After college, I worked at Campanile in Los Angeles, learning the tricks of the trade from culinary greats Nancy Silverton and Mark Peel.

After six years at Campanile, my husband and I moved to Austin, TX, where we embarked on several culinary endeavors, starting with our sandwich delivery service, which evolved into a dinner delivery service, and finally combining the concepts with our brick and mortar café.

Two kids, three food businesses and nine crazy years later, we headed home to California, to get back to family, friends and our roots.

Life in Los Angeles is good, and inspiring. Being busy doing what I love every day, bringing my joy and passion to you - it just doesn’t get any better!
