• Retreat Chef
I’m a private chef specializing in creating nourishing, intentional food experiences for retreats and gatherings.

I believe food is more than something we serve between workshops—it’s part of how people experience a retreat. I love creating meals that feel abundant, beautiful, comforting, and genuinely delicious while supporting the intention and energy of the gathering.

From menu planning and sourcing to preparation, cooking, and service, I handle the culinary details so retreat hosts can stay focused on their guests and the experience they’ve created.

My background is rooted in plant-based and wellness-focused cooking, and I’m comfortable creating menus around a wide range of dietary needs and preferences. I bring a thoughtful, flexible approach to each retreat and love collaborating
