Cooking has always been my passion...I cannot wait to become a chef in my own right, my ambition is to open my own business using the qualifications and experiences I’ve gained from Weston College.

As a new lecturer, I’m incredibly excited to join the Weston team and share my knowledge and passion for food.  I have extensive industry experience gained over many years and my first 6 months at Weston have been fantastic.  Teaching here fulfils a lifelong dream of mine – supporting new learners grown into confident and passionate chefs.  I love to meet new people and I’m a firm believer that with motivation and commitment, we can all achieve our dreams and ambitions.

My passion for cooking came to me whilst I was still in school, I spent my weekends working in local pubs learning traditional, simple, and honest foods. My summers were spent in very busy holiday resort kitchens, and this is where I got my first taste of large-scale catering operations made up of various teams all coming together for one purpose; to give the customer the best experience they possibly could! The ethos and team spirit enthralled me, but I wanted more!
