Based in Boise - a foodie at heart. Not classically trained in the culinary arts... but embracing a diversity of deliciousness. Experimenting, sampling, devouring and sharing. Slightly biased towards local producers, pasta, cheese, bacon, wine - you know, the good stuff!

I love to eat - so therefore, I enjoy cooking.

I'm Irish/Italian (drink like the Irish, eat/cook like the Italians) so I sometimes have trouble following recipes or measurements.

My foodie goals in life?

• To become an intuitive chef 
• To make many foodie pilgrimmages (a Thomas Keller experience? check!)
• To constantly discover the nom-worthy offerings of my home state
• To master a culinary artisan art or two (cheese monger & charcuterist on the list)
• To share, connect, learn, grow and mangia - a lot
