Welcome to my culinary journey, which combines my Memphis roots with a love of timeless flavors. I get my ideas from the cherished recipes of my grandparents, who are from the heart of Memphis, Tennessee.

My interest in food was sparked in their kitchen, where it has grown into a passion that inspires me to make recipes that reflect love, tradition, and a healing touch.

I am a retired Military culinary specialist of 8 years, and I am also serve safe certified. Having attended multiple advanced culinary courses over the last 5 years since retiring.

My use of food as a means of communication is proof of the nourishing effects of family dinners. I carefully prepare each meal, infusing it with flavors that nourish the body as well as the soul because I am guided by the notion that food is the primary form of healing.
