I’m new to the Dallas–Fort Worth area, and I bring 10 years of culinary experience from London, where I refined my technique and deepened my passion for Japanese cuisine. I love exploring local ingredients and turning them into balanced dishes that honor tradition while welcoming thoughtful innovation.

Japanese cooking sits at the heart of my style, and I like to elevate it with health-forward touches—like chia seeds for texture and nutrition, brown rice sushi, and even quinoa for a wholesome twist. My goal is always the same: food that feels clean and vibrant while keeping the depth of flavor and precision I expect from Japanese cuisine.
