I bring high-end hospitality and BBQ soul to your table—beautifully plated and built for great moments.

With over 20 years of culinary experience, I’ve cooked in prestigious places like the Ritz Carlton and Marriott Hotels, co-owned a gourmet BBQ food truck, and led kitchens in luxury restaurants across Europe. Right now, I work at Oxymoron in Hackesche Höfe in Mitte, Berlin.

My style is vibrant, creative, and detail-driven: I love building menus around your preferences and turning a meal into an unforgettable event—whether it’s a refined, meticulously plated dish or a hearty BBQ-style feast.

Fresh ingredients, an eye for detail, and a heap of good vibes—because great food deserves a laugh and a smile!

I’m grounded in tradition and trained by experience

I learned to cook by my father’s side in our family restaurant. He was an award-winning chef, and I carry that legacy with me—pairing it with decades of professional experience in fine dining, hospitality, and event cooking.
