I have been a chef and a cook for 10 years across half of Canada, and dozens of different cuisines. Despite moving so frequently, I was always able to find a home in kitchens along the way. Working with chefs who specialized in Lebanese, Italian, French, Philippine, and vegan cooking has broadened my horizons, and prepared me to find joy in feeding everyone's pallets, restrictions, and preferences. I have come from high-volume fine-dining restaurants, and I worked with some of the most interesting and talented people there; I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with everyone I meet! I am thrilled to be cooking for these children, as I have just recently become a father, and it will be good practice for cooking for my own child. And soon enough, teaching him how to cook.
