The Chef

The Story

I'm a Raleigh-based private chef trained at the Culinary Institute of America, and I've spent my career building menus around what's fresh and what each client actually wants to eat. As Executive Chef at Heights House Hotel, I launched a fresh-pasta program from scratch; as owner of The Coop Food Truck, I ran daily operations, recipe development, and food costing for years. Today, through my own private chef work and with Just Table It, I design personalized weekly meal plans for households across Raleigh, handling procurement, prep, and in-home service while keeping dietary needs and food safety front and center. Expect thoughtful, farm-to-table cooking, honest communication about your preferences, and meals that feel like they were made just for your table - because they were.
