About
I love being able to provide home cooks with a solid foundation of skills for everyday cooking and baking. Building confidence, equipping students with techniques, and abundant inspiration in the kitchen that encourage becoming more intuitive and efficient cooks.
I have been in the culinary industry for over 20 years and teaching cooking classes for several years, most recently as a culinary instructor at San Francisco Cooking School.
