About me
I am chef, writer and content creator currently working alongside studying for my masters in Digital Journalism. I have been a professional chef for three years but have moved into a more flexible freelance role in the last year, working for pop ups and doing guest spots in established pubs/restaurants in London. I work with a variety of cuisines including Thai, Italian, and what I enjoy making most is baking and pastry. I have developed recipes for the restaurants I've worked at as well as for my own freelance business. When developing a recipe, I always start with books, I have an obscene amount of recipe books in my house. I’m interested in the history of food as well as it’s processes and flavours, and I write about the hospitality industry on Substack.
I have over five years of experience in copywriting, SEO, UX Design and marketing strategy focussing on blog posts, social media, and email campaigns.
I have run social media and marketing for small independent brands advertising events and products. I write copy for blogs and marketing content and design email and social media marketing campaigns

Chef de PartieForza Win
- London, United KingdomFull Time
I developed a passion for working seasonally with the highest quality ingredients and learned about how to work and communicate in a well structured kitchen environment. I learned how to make fresh pasta from scratch, roll it and shape it, a skill I take great pride in. I stepped into an unofficial role of pastry chef for the company, and developed several dessert recipes that went on the menu to huge success. After Forza Win was forced to close during lockdown I was moved to its sister site, Forza Wine, where I worked from the end of furlough in July 2020. I adapted to this change and the different style of menu with enthusiasm and maintained the high level of professionalism and commitment to the quality of food I sent out. Both kitchens have been open plan, meaning I am required to be an ambassador of the company and brand, and communicate well with other members of staff and customers.
