La Mia Storia

Born in the eternal city of Rome food was always my passion since a very young age. After attending the Chef Academy in Italy and working in different restaurants across the Peninsula and Europe, I opened my first Restaurant in Rome where I spent three amazing years.
During my travels l had the chance to know people from all over the world and work in incredible places such as spiritual retreats in Mexico, festivals like Burning Man in Nevada and summer events in Canada. 
I fell in love of Latin America and it’s food as soon as I got here.
In 2014 I left Italy for good and started a new life in the Pacific Coast of Panama where I spent five years running my own restaurants and hotel. It’s in Panama also where I got into the private catering business, mostly on yatchs crossing the Panama Canal.
In 2019 I moved to Mexico where I worked as a chef in private events and wellness retreats; finally and all these experiences and knowledge led me to start my own personal project.
