My Culinary Journey
My journey began with a simple wooden spoon in my mother’s kitchen, where I first discovered the joy of cooking with love and intention. Those early mornings watching her knead dough and the aroma of Sunday roasts taught me that food is more than sustenance—it’s a language of love.
Since then, I’ve deepened my passion through travels across Italy, Thailand, Morocco, and beyond. Each destination added new flavors to my repertoire and taught me that great cooking transcends borders. From mastering the art of fresh pasta in a Tuscan farmhouse to learning the delicate balance of Thai curry pastes in Bangkok street markets, these hands-on experiences shaped my approach to recipe development.
Over the past decade, I’ve refined my techniques through culinary workshops, countless kitchen experiments, and years of exploring flavors from around the world. And while the techniques have grown more sophisticated, the heart behind it all remains the same: cooking should be simple, soulful, and shared.
