About Me
My journey in Domestic Service began in San Francisco in 2005 wove through Normandy, France, stretched across a decade in New York City, two years in LA, and circled back to the Bay Area. Since 2018, I have made my home in Berkeley, CA, with my twin boys, Max and Otis. Growing up in Newport, RI, and working in restaurants from age 14, instilled in me a work ethic that balances total dedication with a genuine love of the work I do.
Background and Experience
I enjoyed a 15-year career as a Private Chef for high-profile clients in California, New York, and Europe. The idea of recruiting occasionally crossed my mind, but it wasn’t until I became the Lead Chef Recruiter at Domestic Match that I realized how much recruiting lit me up! The entire process, from start to finish, fascinated me, and I quickly became hooked. Opening my own boutique agency was the next logical step, and I’m thrilled to share it with you!
