Summary
An experienced Chef de Cuisine who, after a decade in finance and sales, has returned to my culinary roots fueled by a genuine passion for cooking. With a foundation built on years of working in my parents' restaurant, I have accrued approximately four years of experience in professional kitchens, where I had the privilege of working alongside and learning from talented chefs. Known for my strong work ethic and collaborative spirit, I strive for excellence and continually seek to expand my culinary knowledge. I am eager to embark on a successful culinary journey.
