Being a chef is about trusting the rhythm of creation… It’s about creating from the soul, honoring your roots, and staying true to what inspires YOU. For me, it’s about finding purpose in ingredients, letting passion drive process, and allowing authenticity to shine through every dish. Growth is part of the craft, and every step in the kitchen is a chance to create something meaningful and uniquely yours. #purpose #cheflife #authenticity #passion

THANK YOUUUU 2024! Looking forward to setting new goals and fun experiences in 2025 🎉🎉 From South Africa to Ireland, LA to NY and many places in between- it’s been an incredible adventure connecting with all of you! Excited for what’s next!!
LIFT 🏋🏾♀️ RUN 🏃🏾♀️HANG 🏖️ 2024 // MUSCLE BEACH 2 Olympics lifts: Snatch & Clean & Jerk 2 mile run along the beach Why do I lift? Olympic weightlifting is more than just about the weight on the bar. It’s about the small intricacies that come together to create something that appears effortless— kinda like ballet with a barbell, finding a flow through every movement. In cooking… where 100 details; like quality of ingredients… the right pan… salt type… and heat control can make or break a dish; weightlifting is a sum of many small things. Each precise movement adds up to a final expression of power and grace.💥 Whether in the kitchen or in the gym developing a skill inevitably entails, failing and succeeding. It becomes about embracing the process, keeping it fun and keeping curiosity alive as you are in pursuit of mastering your craft. That’s the human experience. 🌱 JULY 2024 -POWER SNATCH 85lbs -CLEAN & JERK 125lbs —————————– SEPT 2024 -POWER SNATCH 95lbs [PR] -CLEAN & JERK 130lbs [PR] Story-time: Failed 125lbs C J at a meet a couple months ago and haven’t been able to get close to that weight in a while. To hit 130lbs feels so golden in my spirit ✨wish it could bottled 🍾 what a moment! 🥂A lesson learned is that you cannot have a shred of doubt in your mind that you are not going to make it, just BELIEVE and your body will know what to do. I set out to hit 2 PR’s and that’s what I did. 🌀 #OlympicWeightlifting #CulinaryJourney #Neuroplasticity #SkillDevelopment #FitnessAndFood
