About Us 

I am a professional chef and culinary ambassador passionate about building enthusiasm and forging relationships through culinary activities and events. Born in Japan and having lived in Tokyo until the age of 13, my Japanese upbringing profoundly influences my approach to food.
As a culinary ambassador, I have had the privilege of working extensively across Australia's key food export markets on behalf of government and industry bodies. Through my work in China, North Asia, South East Asia, and the Middle East, I have gained invaluable insights into diverse culinary traditions and witnessed how food shapes cultures and creates delicious dishes.
My career has enabled me to understand how people interact with food, fostering a profound appreciation for cultural diversity and culinary experiences. I thrive on creating unique culinary events that celebrate the intersection of food, culture, and human connection.
I am fortunate to work alongside Leana, who brings an intuitive understanding of flavour combinations and a flair for creating beautiful and intriguing dishes. With a rich family heritage, her great-grandmother and grandmother ran cooking establishments in Vietnam, and her father owned a noodle-making business in Melbourne, supplying the city with some of the finest Vietnamese noodles. Leana infuses our work with heritage, creativity, and depth of flavour.
Together, we focus on authenticity and innovation, dedicated to delivering exceptional culinary experiences that captivate and delight. We take pride in utilising our cultural backgrounds and extensive expertise to craft memorable moments and foster meaningful connections through the power of food.
I look forward to continuing this culinary journey, exploring new landscapes, and sharing the joy of food with others.
