Overview

I am a tv personality and chef. Although I did not win Food Network Star, I beat out many others in competitive series. Bobby and Giada often praised my food and were brought in by my quirky personality. I am continuing my culinary endeavors through catering, personal chef experiences, demos and more. If you are seeking insanely delicious food, paired with an engaging cook (hint: me), I would love to be apart of your event.
Although I am living in Honolulu, I am most definitely willing to travel. Travel expenses must be covered in addition to service fees.

About

I am one stellar self taught chef. In fact, my skills and dynamic personality landed me a spot o Season 13 of Food Network Star. Bobby Flay and Giada loved my food and I consistently out shined even professional chefs. Now that I am back home I am focusing on curating a culinary legacy. I have been doing more catering, private chef events, demos and just want to share my love of cooking with everyone I come in contact with. With a variety of culinary styles, I am certain that I can provide whatever you are looking for. My dynamic and quirky personality is also sure to draw some attention.
I am 33 years old, and currently live in Honolulu, Hawaii with my 2 children and my husband. We are constantly outdoors hiking, ocean kayaking and exploring everything this beautiful island has to offer.

Influences and inspiration

Being on season 13 of Food Newtork Star was an incredible experience for me. I learned so much and it opened my eyes to everything that is out there for me. I have had my food blog for almost 3 years now. It has been the longest standing culinary outreach that I have. I do absolutely everything for my food blog from cooking the food, taking the pictures, writing the posts and editing the layout. Through it I have refined my skills, practiced and grown to a level of cooking that floored even people like Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentis.
