Private Chef and Forager

I kicked off my career in 2016 by diving into culinary school, all thanks to my love for cooking and living healthy. Not long after, I got certified as a personal trainer and started working part-time in gyms, kitchens, a small family farm, and even a local slaughterhouse. Along the way, I got really into wild plants and mushrooms.

Now, I’m fully self-employed—running a customizable, in-home meal prep business and offering foraging and local food experiences. When I’m not working, you’ll find me messing around in our backyard garden, wandering through Ohio’s green spaces, hunting down local food, or whipping up something delicious in the kitchen.

I’ve had the chance to work with some amazing people, including the talented chef Andrew Smith in Columbus, and I’m lucky to be connected with foraging expert Alan Bergo, aka the "Forager Chef."

Wild and local food has totally changed my life, and I’m all about creating a space where it can do the same for others.
