I was born and raised on Long Island in New York. I graduated with distinction from Le Academie D' Cuisine in 1998. After years of experience in all types of kitchens, I took a year off and spent some time in Florida. There, I became a freelance personal  chef for seniors. I 've always been eager to grow and learn, and this combination of cooking and building client relationships was finally my perfect match. With my passion for both giving back to the community and creating delicious meals after years of searching  for a connection, I came back to New York and founded Culinary Companion. For me, this is the perfect blend of creativity, cooking and companionship.  I look forward to serving you and aging loved ones. This is where we begin our journey together!
