Nashville's Intentional Private Chef

Creating Deeper Relationship with Food

We all know food matters, but it’s exhausting 
being bombarded with how we “should” eat.

Dr. Tasty creates intentional culinary experiences where people and communities can choose what role food plays in their lives.

Private Dinners

Experience dinner as a deeply personal way to evoke meaning, to impact and shape the conversation at your table. I’ll work with you to co-create a dining experience shaped by and for your intention. 

Community Meal Prep

Democratized, sustainable and economical meal-prep. 

In this model, by bringing your cooker & to-go containers to the venue, you learn how to cook (beginners welcome), and enjoy cooking with the group to be supported in cooking by community. 

You leave more connected, with 7 nourishing meals for the week, an understanding of how it was made, the history of the dish, and an invitation to make each meal more intentional. 

Custom Individual Meals

See your fridge filled with intentional meals to nourish you and your family.

Microgreen Ancient Grain Sourdough Focaccia

A bread to create intentional nourishment. Quinoa, Farro, Millet, and Wheat Berry ancient grains packed with nutrients still protected in their whole form embedded throughout a slow proofed sourdough focaccia and topped with sunflower and leek microgreens. As deeply nourishing as it is unctuously flavorful. Available Sat / Sun at the Radical Shoots Greenhouse in the center of the Nashville Farmers Market.

Origin And Purpose

After I fully burnt out completing my PhD shooting fruit flies with lasers to study wound healing, I rediscovered my curiosity and passion for life by private cheffing for psychedelic ceremonies.

The unlikely bridging of science, spirituality, healing, and deep connection helped me see cooking as the first uniquely human love language. Cooking has shaped human cognitive evolution, connected us directly to our heritage and cultural traditions, and continues to create nourishment, resilience, and community wherever it is practiced.

My mission is to embody cooking as a love language and to bring intentionality back to every meal. In this, I invite us to set aside our expectations, and before each meal take a pause from asking what it ‘should’ be, and take a moment to explore what we want that meal to be for us. 

Intentionally nutritious, satisfying, exciting, nostalgic, healthy, exploratory, sinfully delicious.

By making each meal an opportunity to pause and reflect, we create a moment which we can really experience. That presence allows us to build the life we want to live.
