I am a passionate and dedicated chef with a deep love for Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. Inspired by the simplicity and richness of regional flavors — from handmade pastas to fresh, seasonal ingredients — I aim to create dishes that are both soulful and refined.

My culinary journey has been shaped by a blend of traditional techniques and contemporary approaches, recently enriched by training at Joël Robuchon. This experience helped sharpen my precision and deepen my respect for detail in the kitchen.

Whether preparing classic Italian recipes or giving them a modern twist, I strive to craft dining moments that are warm, memorable, and deeply connected to guests. For me, cooking isn’t just about food — it’s about storytelling, generosity, and creating something special to be shared.
