I am half Italian, half Croatian but call Santa Margherita Ligure, a small and beautiful fishing village in Liguria, my home. My path to becoming a chef is unconventional but cooking has always been my greatest passion. As an Italian your mother will always be the best chef in the world, therefore with pride I can say I learnt from the best! In addition I graduated from:

Associazioni Cuochi Torino
Thai Cooking Academy
Le Cordon Bleu

I have practiced, broadened and updated many of my skills and learned far beyond the standard of the Italian restaurants and resorts I began my career in. Transferring to working onboard yachts I learned and perfected the skills of:

Budget management 
Menu planning
Baking
Time management 
Organisation
Commitment
Versatility 
Adaptability 

I am an experienced professional chef always using fresh, quality, and seasonal ingredients to create tasty, varied and exciting food for guests and crew. At the centre of Italian culture is the love for cooking, eating, and sharing food with friends and family. I want my guests and crew to experience this philosophy too.
