With over 30 years of experience in diverse kitchens, I'm excited to offer my services as a freelance chef.
My culinary journey began with classical French training, providing a strong foundation that allows me to excel in a wide range of cuisines, including Asian, European, South and North American. Whether you need a leader or a supportive team player, I'm adept at both leading brigades and seamlessly integrating into existing teams, always happy to take direction.

While I specialize in savory, I'm also more than comfortable in the pastry section, with proven experience as a baker of delicious cakes and breads.
My professional background spans various environments, from cafes, hotels, and pubs to school catering, staff canteens, sporting venues, and corporate entertaining. This breadth of experience means I can adapt quickly to your specific needs and deliver exceptional results.
Based in Northamptonshire, I'm available for both short and long-term contracts. I'm also happy to travel anywhere in the UK, provided travel and accommodation expenses are covered.
Let's discuss how I can bring my passion and expertise to your team! Feel free to send me a direct message to learn more.
