the rescued chef…
my lifestyle brand rooted in personal chef and catering work, shaped by the woods, the garden, my home, and a love of well-crafted, intentional living.
The brand extends beyond the kitchen, shaped by the places and projects that inspire me daily: time in the woods, slow days in the garden, the ongoing restoration of our 1930s home, and the craftsmanship that comes from woodworking and collecting meaningful vintage pieces.
These parts of my life influence the way I cook, host, and design experiences. They show up in the ingredients I choose, the simplicity of my menus, the way a table is set, and the sense of ease I try to bring to every gathering. The rescued chef blends food, home, craft, and curiosity into one perspective rooted in flavor, grounded in place, and shaped by the details that make something feel intentional.
This is a space for cooking, for inspiration, and for the kind of living that moves a little slower and feels a little more considered.
Good food has a way of slowing a moment down.
Whether it’s a grazing board on a summer porch or a quiet dinner indoors, I believe in creating experiences that feel relaxed, generous, and thoughtfully made. It’s the kind of hosting where people settle in, connect, and stay awhile.
