“After finishing school, I attended Jackie Cameron School of Food and Wine in Hilton, where I not only received my chef diploma in both hot kitchen and pastry, but also had the best culinary school experience South Africa has to offer.

I was fortunate enough to do my internship at Greenhouse Kitchen in Constantia, Cape Town, under world renowned Chef Peter Tempelhoff and Chef Ashley Moss. It was here that I developed a deeper love for pastry and decided to learn more about the art of chocolate.
