I went to USC *and* the College of Charleston, married the love of my life, and together we’re raising a daughter named Rosalie — the kind of soul who broke the mold wide open.

I’ve spent over 30 years in hospitality, nonprofit leadership, and cultural entrepreneurship. From creating culinary job training programs to building bold brands and soulful spaces, my work has always been about this: service that transforms.

As President of Les Dames d’Escoffier Charleston, a TODAY Show-featured mentor, and Hometown Hero Award recipient, I’ve done the behind-the-scenes work of bringing ideas to life with excellence, grace, and hospitality that feels like home.
