Come Eat from My Plate

Hello Friends!

I’m a ballerina turned personal chef, culinary instructor and food writer. Born in San Francisco, CA and raised in Palo Alto, CA with a twenty-plus year stint in Las Vegas, NV.

I now reside in Ashland, Oregon where I offer both on-line and in-person cooking classes for all ages and levels at a local community kitchen or in the comfort of your own home.

My classes range from basic knife skills to French, Italian, Caribbean to Indian and more.

I love sharing what I’ve learned over the years and truly believe food and cooking bring people together, and allows us to learn from one another in tasty ways.

My personal Substack offers short stories and articles on a number of topics but always with a Food Twist or Theme:
