I remember what it was like to come home after a long day in the office knowing I still had to fix dinner. No matter how much I enjoyed cooking, it was always easier to just pick something up. I knew there had to be a better solution.

Through Just No Thyme I am able to use my skills and passion by providing wholesome, fresh meals for my clients. Meals that can go from the refrigerator to the table in just a matter of a few minutes. These are not fattening, overly rich meals. My goal is to create delicious, flavorful food that my clients can and want to enjoy every day...even the kids.

I graduated at the top of my class from the California School of Culinary Arts with a Diplome in Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Arts, completed my training in The Dining Room at the Ritz-Carlton Huntington Hotel in Pasadena, and opened my Personal Chef service, Just No Thyme.

Native to the San Gabriel Valley, I grew up in South Pasadena, and graduated from the University of Southern California. I have been an active member of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses for nearly 15 years. I am licensed, insured, bonded and a certified ServSafe food handler.
