Passionate home cook and proud Cookpad ambassador. I was a Beat the Chef contestant in 2019—one of only two to reach Round 4! 🏆 Winner of Sausage Recipe of the Year in both 2019 & 2020. Finalist in the ICG Home Cook Awards 2021, 2022/23, and Highly Commended in 2024.

The kitchen is my happy place. I love discovering new recipes, tweaking them to make them my own, and sharing the joy. If a recipe doesn’t need a tweak, I’ll always credit the original author or source—respect where it’s due!

I’m a big fan of cooking live—DM me if you’d like to do an Instagram Live together and let’s make some kitchen magic happen. I’m always learning from the amazing cooks on this platform, so be sure to check them out too.

Cooked one of my recipes? Send me a Cooksnap—I love seeing your creations and sharing the love. 💛

Stay safe and happy cooking!
