I’m a popular speaker for groups of all sizes — everything from neighborhood garden clubs and public libraries to civic groups, business associations, and conference keynotes.
I’ve been a participant and moderator on all sorts of panels. Audiences find me warm, engaging, informative, and fun.
Some ideas to whet your appetite
A custom cooking event is the perfect option for people who want to spend time with me and enjoy the food I prepare, but don’t want a cooking class.
I’m not a traditional caterer, but I love preparing food for small gatherings, such as dinner parties, workplace gatherings, team building, business meetings, and celebrations, such as birthdays and anniversaries. I tell some stories, describe the menu, and share a few of my signature tips and hints. I create a custom event that’s just right for your interests, and guest list. I can come to your home, event space, or location of your choice.
The first step is contact me so our brainstorming and planning can begin.
A cooking class is a great way to pick up new skills, expand your recipe repertoire, entertain guests, engage co-workers, support your favorite fundraiser, or celebrate your next special occasion.
Most clients prefer my lively, informative demo classes where guests watch me prepare the food while we chat. I encourage questions to ensure that everyone goes home confident that they can prepare the recipes. Some clients prefer a hands-on class where I teach them (and perhaps some of the guests) a specific cooking technique or recipe. I can also do a little of both. Yes, I’ll come to the kitchen of your choice.
Getting started is easy, just contact me.
