about me

I became a private chef because I wanted to be part of life’s most meaningful moments. What I enjoy most about my work is working closely with my clients and creating dining experiences that exceed their expectations.

How I became
a chef

For me, food has always been about more than just eating. It’s a way to bring people together, create memories, and make every occasion a little more special.

My passion for cooking started at a young age. It all began with experimenting in my own kitchen, from upgrading ready-made burgers to making my very first sauces from scratch. The more I cooked, the more I loved it, and eventually that passion led me to culinary school.

Before working in professional kitchens, I worked at a service station. That’s where I learned one of the most important lessons I’ve carried with me ever since: good food doesn’t have to be complicated. It just has to be made with care.

After graduating from culinary school in 2012, I began my career with an internship at Chez Dominique, once named Finland’s best restaurant. From there, I went on to work in acclaimed restaurants such as Olo and Farang.

I later gained international experience in Edinburgh, Scotland, working at Restaurant 21212, once named Scotland’s best restaurant, and the award-winning Timberyard.

The COVID-19 pandemic became a turning point in my career. It inspired me to leave my role as a head chef and start my own business, creating a private chef service built around the quality, flexibility, and personal approach I truly believe in.

Experience in award-winning kitchens

My food philosophy

Great food starts with fresh, high-quality, seasonal ingredients. I combine classic and modern techniques to create dishes that are balanced, full of flavour, and made to be enjoyed. Above all, I believe food should simply taste great, without unnecessary fuss.

From fine dining to street food

My experience ranges from Scandinavian fine dining to more relaxed, street food-inspired cuisine, including Mexican cuisine.

This allows me to create a menu that’s perfectly suited to your event, whatever the occasion.
