Having familial ties to the Lowcountry area, food has always been deeply ingrained in life from my grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends. I grew up cooking Sunday Morning breakfasts at an early age, watching my grandfather cook lima beans and fish and grilling for different functions.

 I never imagined it would lead to a career path until my senior year of high school when I was enrolled in the Culinary Arts Program.​

My background and culinary accents are rooted Southern hospitality. There are so many avenues and cultural stories told through food, so I look forward to sharing the snapshot of how I view food with you! 😌
