Chef Extraordinaire. Born in Montana and a long time resident of Tricities, WA. I come from a large family and good food is central to all family gatherings. I enjoy cooking for my family. I love the Pacific Northwest outdoors, fishing and hunting. I can BBQ pretty much anything and plan on bringing that to market as well in the near future. I have had the fortune of working as a chef in different restaurants over the years which has allowed me to appreciate the finer aspects of different cuisines. Being in the wine country, I love to pair my food with the varieties of wine from our local wineries.

My plan is to bring unique and traditional southern cuisine to everyone in the Tricities. I am passionate about affordable gourmet food and creating new flavors. I truly believe that food brings people and communities together. I am really lucky that both my partner and I believe in giving back to the community and that is yet another driving force to create something special and good.

It was the love, support and memories from a large extended family in upstate New York that influenced my partnership with Bayou Some Cajun. With over 15 years of experience in the financial services industry, an MBA from University of Phoenix and a Bachelor of Science degree from Utica College of Syracuse University, my business background plus my commitment to family, community and desire to give back solidified my investment in this business venture.

I developed a passion for authentic cuisine through my travels domestically and abroad. After traveling across Asia, Europe, Australia, and South and North America, I quickly understood that food is the most important part of any culture and intensifies the memories that are built. If you have been fortunate enough to have visited New Orleans like I have, then it is hard to disagree that the food there is what shapes the spirit and happiness of such a vibrant city. We are really excited to share this experience with the Tri-Cities!
