Tap into my culinary background as an event planner,
caterer, and chef manager, working with food stylists and prominent
chefs, designing menus and creating recipes for a variety of events and occasions.
I’ve done cookbook recipe testing, plating for menu and cookbook photo shoots, interactive chef demonstrations, beer and wine pourings and
pairings, and on-site prep for gatherings large and small from dinners at the
James Beard House to buffet-style get togethers at private residences and
culinary charity activities.
I've written, edited, and/or tested literally thousands of
recipes, developing comprehensive and complex seasonal menus to pitch to
clients for gala dinners and all-day conferences as well as for smaller,
intimate events. I can work with you to
create dishes for specific themed gatherings, like Oktoberfest, Summer Barbecues, Holiday Cocktail Parties, and St.
Patrick's Day, in addition to drawing up plating guides and steps of service
for the actual day for the on-site catering team to create raves from your guests.
