Food has always been my first language.
With an American mother and a South African father, my childhood unfolded between two continents—each with its own flavors, rituals, and stories around the table. I grew up surrounded by chefs (literally—both my parents), so it’s no surprise that I followed suit.
I began my formal training in 2012 at the Culinary Institute of America in New York, focusing on pastry arts. From there, I worked across a range of kitchens and creative roles, building a well-rounded foundation that led me to food styling.
Today, the studio feels like home. I thrive in collaborative, creative environments and love bringing food to life alongside other artists. When I’m not on set, you’ll find me teaching yoga, cooking by a campfire, or dancing barefoot in my living room.
