In pursuing my true passion of working with food and people, I have graduated the Culinary Arts & Hospitality Program with Honors from SBCC and shortly after having graduated, my Uncle was diagnosed with Alzheimers. I moved down to Ventura, CA to assist my Mom with caring for him for the last four years and developed a love for caring for those who need assistance in caring for themselves. Patience, understanding and compassion are the most important when caring for our loved ones and our patients. I enjoy working and developing recipes that cater to special dietary needs, as I realize that if meals do not taste good and look good, you won't enjoy it and that is tremendously important when having to be on special diets. I also try to use fresh, organic and local products whenever possible, as those are the best when caring for our bodies and to help us meet our goals. I have many certifications that I can provide you copies of that are from the Culinary Industry, including my Culinary Certification, ServSafe Food Handling Certification, Sustainable Seafood and Hotel & Hospitality Certifications that I am not able to provide through the site, but happy to provide upon request.
