sous chef

At the end of the day, we’re all cooks and we’ll always continue to learning.

When I was in highschool taking food and nutrition classes, that’s when I knew I wanted to cook professionally.

I was encouraged by my teachers, so I started a secondary school apprenticeship in cooking while I was high school. I was working at the Law Courts Inn and would go to work after school 4-5days a week.

In 1999 I became Bill Grimshaw’s apprentice and then completed my Red seal in 2001. In 2003 I became Bill’s sous chef and worked closely with him ever since.

I own way too many cook books and will keep collecting more.

I love cooking at home and I love going out to eat, trying new things and see what the other restaurants are doing. It gives me inspiration and new ideas.
