Growing up in the farmlands of small-town Pennsylvania, I have had a love for Italian food from a young age, since the local Italian restaurants were the go-to place for eating out. Since then I have had the opportunity to learn from and work side by side some great chefs in New York City! Chefs like Michael White who inspired my love for Italian flavors, how to make pastas by hand and the idea that a bowl of pasta is something everyone will always go back to. Or Chef Laurent Tourondel who taught me about creativity, seasonality and always pushing forward to creating the next dish. I hope I can bring you along my journey of always trying to be better and creating something new!
