I am passionate about cooking and learning new recipes I worked in a field supporting people. Part of my job was life skills which included cooking skills. I am currently working with a young woman and part of my job is helping her to prepare food and clean. I am also an amazing home chef and I regularly prepare meals for my freezer. I love all kinds of cuisines including Mexican, Italian, Indian and various Asian cuisines. I also worked in hospitality for many years.

From casual weekly meals to refined private dinners, I focus on delivering a personalized experience rooted in flavor, nutrition, and hospitality. Today, I bring my expertise to private homes and events while also working at Cardero's and with a health-focused company that emphasizes balanced, nourishing meals. Whether you are looking for a special dinner or weekly meals, I'm here to make it unforgettable. Reach out—I'd be happy to plan something tailored just for you. I’ve been working professionally as a chef since 2017, after graduating with a degree in Culinary Arts in Brazil. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in both restaurant kitchens and private settings, allowing me to adapt to a wide range of culinary styles and client needs. My core specialties are Brazilian and Italian cuisine, rooted in my heritage and personal passion.
