I am a 39 year old with a multi-diverse skillset that I have refined over the years. I am cook, a yoga and meditation teacher, athlete (soccer, basketball, baseball, and flag football), and musician. <3. I care very much for people and the world around me which is why I try to apply my talents where I can. I worked in the restaurant industry for 10+ years starting as a hostess, to waitress, to manager and than banquet management. I left the restaurant industry to pursue education, and since then, I have worked in publishing, IT, and advertising. I have spent many hours in the kitchen, received my food safe, refining my skillet to different cuisines as this is a big passion of mine, and the way I show my love to my family, friends, and people like you. I really look forward to connecting. I cook ethnic, vegan, vegetarian, comfort classics, as well as accommodating modifications due to allergies, and food sensitivities. I have food safety credentials.

I've always been passionate about food and cooking, a true foodie at heart. My career has taken me through an exciting journey across hospitality, sales, and marketing. But what really thrills me is getting to blend these experiences with my love for culinary arts. This passion led me to create Kiki’s Organic Tea & Spice Company, where I dived into the world of entrepreneurship. Running this business wasn't just about selling tea and spices; it was a journey in enhancing my culinary skills. From managing a bustling wholesale operation to serving up delightful lunches in our cozy teashop, from catering unique events to bringing smiles at Island festivals with my food truck, each step has been a fulfilling adventure. It's these varied experiences that have shaped me into a well-rounded professional, ready to bring a dash of creativity and a spoonful of expertise to any culinary challenge. From a young age, my life has revolved around the delights of the kitchen, cultivating a true foodie's passion for intricate flavors and cooking. This journey has taken me through an exciting path in hospitality, sales, and marketing, all converging into my profound love for the culinary arts. Creating Kiki’s Organic Tea & Spice Company was a significant leap into entrepreneurship, where I immersed myself in the world of flavor, blending spices and crafting unique profiles that go beyond mere taste. This venture was not just about running a business; it was an extension of my culinary exploration, enhancing my skills in creating dishes that resonate with comfort and familiarity. My approach to cooking, best described as 'slow food family style, ' focuses on carefully crafted dishes that cater to a variety of dietary preferences, including vegetarian, vegan, and raw, ensuring each meal is not only nutritious but also a celebration of flavors. Whether managing a bustling wholesale operation, serving delightful lunches in our cozy teashop, catering for unique events, or spreading joy at Island festivals with my food truck, each experience has been a step in a fulfilling adventure.

I am 29 yo, brazilian and I have been in Canada for a bit more than 3 years now. I have plans for my future career path but I am looking for side jobs for now while I also dedicate more time for my art hobby. I consider myself a easy going, responsible and reliable person. Professionally I dont have experience but I have been cooking a lot the last three years and I feel confident to use it for a side job. Cooking became a big hobby and passion for me and the last few years Ive been improving, and trying new recipes. I dont have a background education related to cooking I am self taught and I can offer cooking meals, prep food and baking.
