About

I am a seasoned and dedicated chef driven to learn and understand all cuisines as well as inspired by how to bring new and emerging techniques from the culinary scene to the superyachting world. I delight in sourcing local ingredients and creating new recipes just as much as I enjoy the heartwarming consistency of culturally traditional dishes.
