| Meet your Personal Chef |
| Cooking is my passion! I have completed course work from The Culinary Institute of America. I am continually learning to prefect my cooking skills and to learn some awesome recipes!! The most recent CIA course work I have completed covered menu options from Mediterranean, Latin America, Asian and Contemporary Cuisine of America. Additionally I have done workshops that specialize in subjects including: rice, soy sauce, oranges, and peanuts. Each workshop gives me in-depth information and new techniques to prepare menus with these items! In addition to expanding my knowledge in World Cuisine, I have taken the necessary course work to obtain my Certification as a Personal Fitness Chef through NESTA (National Endurance & Sports Trainers Association). This certification allows me to offer menu options that are health conscious as well as great tasting! Currently, I am enrolled in the Lifestyle & Weight Management Specialist program. My studies will teach me: Weight loss techniques, diet alternatives, supplementation, combining Ayurveda & Western nutrition, motivational strategies, behavior modification, goal setting, dietary record keeping, and peer influence of behavior. I am a mother of two school-aged children and I understand how hard it is to work full-time and accomplish all of the tasks required each day, including having a healthy dinner at home. Time has truly become a precious commodity in our society. People are spending more and more time commuting to work, and very few people have the time to plan for, shop and prepare healthy meals with all of their various activities. After reading an article about personal chefs, I thought, “I can do that!” Realizing that becoming a personal chef combines my love of cooking with service others, Pinkies Chef Personal Chef Service was born. Now I can help you have delicious, tasty meals in your own home without the hassles-- which will give you more time to do the other activities you and your family enjoy!

Pinkies Personal Chef Blog Serving the Baltimore, Maryland / Washington D.C Area and Surrounding Communities I would be truly grateful to have the opportunity to cook for you and your family.
