My Work
Classical with a modern twist
I draw inspiration from my background, education and travels throughout America and across the globe. My flavors have a local appeal, while retaining the sophistication and elegance of my home in France. I enjoy mixing my savory and sweet backgrounds for a new perspective on traditional classics.
