I create modern Mediterranean experiences with Aegean soul and fine-dining precision.

I’m a culinary artist focused on modern Mediterranean cuisine inspired by the Aegean and coastal traditions of Greece, Turkey, Southern Italy, and the Levant. I lean into clean, bold flavors and exceptional ingredients, balancing simplicity with precision to make every course feel thoughtful and effortless.

My foundation comes from Italian kitchens and time in Michelin-starred environments, and I bring those refined techniques to intimate dinners and multi-course events alike. I cook with fire and patience—grilling, slow braising, fermentation, and careful seasoning—so high-quality produce, fresh seafood, and premium proteins shine with acidity, fresh herbs, and the best olive oil.

My secret in the kitchen is using simple, high-quality ingredients with traditional techniques to create bold, elegant, and unforgettable flavors.
