I was born at a very young age in London, England but came to my tiny piece of santuary in the Pacific when I was barely walking.Self taught myself ethnic cooking such as Indian, Moroccan and Thai and found a love of baking, especially French inspired desserts.I cook for friends and...well...anyone that wants to eat really lol.I work day in-day out with people that have committed serious crimes and cooking helps me refocus my energies when I've had a rough day.Cooking is my 'happy place'.......I find my zen when I'm pulling together a dish.I love the outdoors, swimming in the ocean and lakes over here, I'm a keen photographer, paint abstracts when the mood grips me and I'm a multiple papercut survivor!My mantra...'If you want what you've never had...you have to do what you've never done'
