"I grew up in a beautiful, vibrant region of southern Ukraine, spending my childhood by the river and learning to grow organic fruits and vegetables on our family farm. My first cooking lessons came from my grandmother, who taught me the art of homemade meals from scratch. Later, I completed medical college, gaining foundational knowledge in nutrition, which reinforced my belief that our health is closely tied to the quality of our food.

Cooking has always been a passion. I love creating new recipes with high-quality, organic ingredients, especially inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, which I believe offers an ideal nutritional balance for health.

In 2014, I moved to the Chicago area, where I started an organic garden and began finding clients through referrals, offering in-home chef services, catering, and custom meal orders.

I continue to deepen my knowledge in nutrition, learning about how ingredients affect flavor, quality, and health. Cooking delicious, healthy food is truly my calling!"
