BYOB - FI

I am a Japanese Tea Master, specializing in Chanoyu, the art deeply rooted in samurai culture, which I studied at the renowned Ueda Soko school. There, I achieved the highest rank and earned the distinction of becoming the youngest professor. Presently, I am based in New York City, where I host tea rituals, conduct classes, and offer demonstrations. Furthermore, I am the Founder and General Director of Chanoyu Week NYC.

I hold certifications from CMS, WSET and the Sake School of America who loves sharing my knowledge of wine, spirits, saké and specialty foods with others. There’s a story in every bite or glass and I love sharing those stories with others. My experience includes freelance tasting for corporate and private audiences as well as teaching at Murray’s Cheese in the West Village.

When I was 10 years old, my father taught me how to cook, so that I would never have to rely on someone else when I was hungry. That lesson grew into an interest, which then turned into a hobby, and ultimately my career. In 2016, I decided to live out my dream and move to New York City. Days after moving, I began working at the prestigious Michelin starred French restaurant Café Boulud, owned by renowned chef Daniel Boulud. While there, I also attended the Institute of Culinary Education, where I was awarded “Most Likely to Succeed” in my class. During my three years at Café, I learned valuable techniques and skills that I could implement into my own style of cooking at home. Between 2018and 2019, I was the Sushi Team Leader at the local Wegmans in Brooklyn, eager to expand my knowledge and continue to grow. Now, I’m a full-time personal chef, and have started my own company, No Bounds Cooking LLC. My preferred cuisines may lean towards American, Italian, and Mexican, but I never try to limit myself to only a few options. I’m always trying something new and finding ways to improve on what I’ve done before. No matter what I do, I always put flavor first.

I am a veteran pastry chef with over 25 years professional experience in restaurants. I taught in the Career Pastry Program at The Institute of Culinary Education, and was The Director for Advanced Pastry Studies. I owned and operated Whipped Pastry Boutique, a wholesale, gluten free bakery based in Brooklyn, NY.

We are a coffee brand that is focused on programmed events that include cafe service and espresso martini activations. LeTish coffees are sourced and roasted by a third-generation Italian family who put down roots in the iconic Greenwich Village circa 1907. From the outset, they served a diverse population of New Yorkers composed of immigrants, bohemians, and artists who gravitated towards their especially fresh coffee and inspired baked goods. Born in Brooklyn, LeTish shares the same values of family, community, and service and looks forward to preserving their story in every cup we serve. Take A Seat At The Table. .

Since 2014, I have been a leading player at Murray's Cheese, from upstarting a popular burrata-making program to teaching public and private events. From classes that pair everything from wine and Halloween candy with cheese to nerdy, science-driven cheese 101 tastings, I aim to help people learn more about their palates. When not being cheesy, I help millions of people fall asleep with original meditations and sleep stories. Storytelling and mindfulness play a significant role in curating the interactive tasting events and I love to bring these talents together.
