I am a single Italian woman with a passion for feeding others. I adore cooking and my favourite thing to make has to be fresh pasta, including ravioli and lasagna. I love to customize meals to people’s preferences and adore the challenge of creating various options of one meal so that everyone (with different restrictions and preferences) can enjoy a different version of the same meal. I am comfortable preparing standard, vegan, gluten free, keto, carnivore, or raw vegan meals. I always care and remember who likes or dislikes what- for example cilantro. Over the past 4 years I have been a private home cook for 3 families, my duties not only included the standard, meal customization, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning and packing lunches, but also catering parties and at home banquets. Before becoming home cook I worked in various restaurants for 6 years. Prior to that I have been cooking my whole life, trained by my Italian grandmother.
