I'm originally from Otavalo, Ecuador, and moved to the United States to study at the Culinary Institute of America. After graduating, I trained in some of the country’s most acclaimed restaurants, including Eleven Madison Park, Gabriel Kreuther, Per Se, and The French Laundry.

 

Working in these kitchens shaped my approach to hospitality — thoughtful, detail-oriented, and deeply rooted in seasonality.

 

Today, I create private dining experiences designed to feel elegant yet welcoming. From intimate dinners to curated tastings and special gatherings, I love creating meals that bring people together in a meaningful and memorable way.

 

I believe the best experiences happen around the table, where beautiful food and genuine hospitality come together naturally.
