SEASONED PRIVATE CHEF
About Me
Hi, I’m Brent, a seasoned chef with over a decade of professional experience. I've worked at a number of restaurants including Michelin-Starred Gramercy Tavern and Thai Diner in New York as well as Avec in Chicago. Most recently, I've worked as a private chef for families and large-scale events. I'm passionate about seasonal cooking using locally-sourced ingredients to create simple but exciting flavors. ​
​
I want to bring the hospitality and experience of a restaurant into your home. Whether it’s a party for your closest friends, a celebratory tasting menu, or just a casual weeknight family dinner, I’ll work with you to build a custom menu for any occasion. My goal is for you to relax and enjoy the meal. I'm excited to cook for you!

Meal Prep
Take the guess work out of weekly meal planning. I'll plan, prepare, and store a weeks' worth of meals to meet your family's preferences and goals.
Dinner at Home
Whether it's an elevated tasting menu or a comforting weeknight dinner, I'll cook for your family and bring the restaurant experience to your own home.
Special Event Catering
If you're hosting a party, I can design a menu to accommodate any theme or dietary restrictions. From set-up to clean-up, I'll take care of it all.
