Hello, I'm Kate

I was trained at the Culinary Institute of America in New York — classically French taught, refined over decades. From learning butchery to working in a 3 Michelin star kitchen in New York City, food has never just been my career. It's been my language.

​

My path has not been linear. It never is for the people worth knowing.

 

I've led global teams of data engineers and product managers. I've cooked for the most discerning tables. I've learned that the best meals and the best lives share the same quality — they're built with intention, not accident.

​

At the center of all of it has always been people. The ones sitting at the table. The ones in the kitchen. The ones I'm building something for. People are the whole point.

​

My signature style is simple but refined. Fusion cuisine that doesn't try too hard. Every place I've lived has shaped the way I cook, the way I source, the way I see ingredients. That's not a philosophy. That's just how I move through the world.

​

I'm also deeply health conscious — food should nourish as much as it delights. The meals I create for everyday living are nutrient dense by design, built around the idea that what you eat daily is the foundation of how you show up in the world.

​

Right now I'm building something. The come up is happening in real time — and the people I cook for get to be part of that story.

​

In my free time you'll find me at the gym, with my dog Arya, somewhere near water, or in a cockpit working toward my private pilot's license. Adrenaline junky. Always moving forward.

​

The MY Collective exists for people who value trust and a deeply human presence at their table.
