My love for cooking sparked in my teens, igniting a lifelong passion that led me to the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. There, I discovered food was my canvas, a way to blend artistry and flavor to bring smiles to every table. It all began with my original spice blend—a bold, heartfelt blend that captured my culinary soul and became the cornerstone of my craft. That first blend, born from late-night experiments and shared with family and friends, sparked a fire that fueled my calling to share joy through food. Over the years, my palate grew refined, mastering the dance of spices and herbs. Inspired by San Francisco’s vibrant food scene, I crafted more bold blends, from North Beach’s Italian zest to Morocco’s soulful warmth, all built on the foundation of that original blend. Tested in home kitchens and pro settings, these blends have won hearts with every shake. Now, I’m thrilled to share them with you, empowering home cooks to transform everyday meals into culinary adventures with a sprinkle of global flair. Shakedown Flavor Up!
