Me descobri cozinheira aos 9 anos, depois de encontrar um livro de receitas da minha avó. Fiz logo um suflê de espinafre. E nesse dia entendi que cozinhar era o que eu mais gostava de fazer.

Porém a vida tem suas surpresas, e quando percebi já estava formada em Administração e Marketing, enlouquecendo com e-mails e reuniões de salto alto.

Mas sonho é sonho, encorajada pelo meu marido, larguei tudo e me joguei feliz entre panelas e temperos.

Me formei pelo Senac no curso Cozinheiro Chef Internacional e descobri um pouco mais da culinária do meu país numa pós graduação em Cozinha Brasileira.

Minha mistura vem das minhas raízes nordestina e italiana. Paixão, história, família... Trago tudo isso para os pratos do restaurante.
