About the Chef

Chef on the Beach

Personal Chef Service

I grew up in South Alabama on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay. Some of my fondest memories are of growing up visiting my maternal and paternal grandparents who both lived on farms in South Alabama. Both of my grandmothers were wonderful southern cooks and taught me how to make everything from homemade biscuits to savory turnip greens and cornbread. They also taught me the importance of fresh quality ingredients as well as the importance of family mealtime. My parents have carried on the tradition of family mealtime but growing up on the Eastern Shore I learned to love and prepare all sorts of seafood dishes from a diverse group of cooks from family to fabulous local chefs.

I have had the opportunity to travel the world and learn to prepare cuisines from Brazil to Thailand and most recently to Ireland where I was amazed to discover the gastronomic delights being prepared by some of Ireland’s up and coming chefs. I have also spent extended periods of time in Mexico and the Caribbean and have a passion for all types of Latin and Island style cuisine. I enjoy cooking and modifying dishes to meet my clients dietary needs. My philosophy is that no one should have to eat boring, bland food...no matter what their dietary restrictions! I enjoy the challenge of cooking very flavorful, delicious meals for special diets such as diabetic, weight loss, low sodium as well as just overall healthy cuisine.

I am a graduate of the Culinary Business Academy and earned my Certified Personal Chef Certification and remain a premier member of The United States Personal Chef Association. I enjoy cooking delicious, healthy, custom meals for my fabulous clients throughout the Florida/Alabama Gulf Coast area.

I am married to the man of my dreams, Keith Moore (aka The Grillmaster) and we share our life on the incredible sugar white beaches of Perdido Key, FL with our amazing English Lab, James Moore.
