I create customized private dining and catering that blends my African roots with Western flavors—always fresh, always memorable.

I craft fresh, customized menus that blend African heritage with classic technique.

I grew up in an African household where cooking was part of everyday life, and I fell in love with the kitchen early. I didn’t plan on becoming a chef until college, when I decided to pursue culinary school alongside traditional college.

After gaining experience in restaurants—including Jack Fry’s—I stepped out on my own as a personal and private chef and caterer. I cook for everything from bridal showers to intimate private events, and I love creating unforgettable dishes with fresh ingredients by blending my African roots with Western flavors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in United States?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 168 USD, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook French, Chef's special, Local and Italian. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in United States?

To book me in United States, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Bachelor/Bachelorette, Friends gathering, Romantic night and Corporate. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
