I love cooking and I am very enthusiastic about it. I still get excited over a beautiful cut of beef or the perfume of fresh cut basil. My teaching stems from my natural joy of cooking and using fresh ingredients. I'm patient, fun and I truly enjoy teaching my students to cook.
These classes are great for beginners. I will teach knife skills, Mise en place, saute, and other beginning skills.
I also offer small party cooking classes where I teach 3 course dinners. These classes are limited to groups of 4 and are booked by calling for rates.
2 menu item classes for up to groups of six are booked by calling for rates.

As a certified holistic health coach and personal chef I've been cooking and teaching since 2008, specializing in vegan + vegetarian cooking. I meet my students where they're at. With each lesson we'll build a strong foundation of healthy cooking basics from salad dressing to dips, frittatas and plant based swaps.There's no right time to start. All you need is a desire to try new things. Progress not perfection. I email my students the recipes we've made after every class, so they can have an ongoing collection of go to recipes.
My students have expressed having an easier time in their day to day schedule within the first month and more confidence in the kitchen and an overall better sense of wellbeing within the first 3 months.
*My prices are for private one on one classes. Please message me for group rates. *

Hello! I have been cooking for my family ever since I was young! My mother and grandmother have taught me their secret recipes and how to make everything from Princess cakes to Indian food, chicken pot pies, and blackberry chocolate chip ice cream. The list is endless! I have tons of comfort in the area of cooking and baking and really take pride in making some AMAZING foods! My mother always said the way to a man's heart is through his stomach and lucky for me my man liked me long before he tasted my cooking but he definitely begs me to make food for him throughout the week. Just the other day he said, " I was coming up the stairs and could smell your food from 3 floors down and was hoping that was our apartment! I am so excited!"
Even if you are young, a beginner, or trying to add more recipes to your repertoire this is where you are meant to be! I don't find cooking or baking a chore but an experience as well as a hobby! Just as Remy says in Ratatouille, "Anyone can cook!"
