I represent a new generation of haute cuisine, shaped by my training at the Culinary Institute of Barcelona (CIB) in Spain. There I didn’t only learn how to cook—I gained the vision and tools to innovate in a giant, passionate, and marvelous industry.

Through my culinary creations, I love to narrate the experiences I’ve lived around the world. I’m Colombian and American, and I’m fully convinced that when I do everything with love, it translates into success—so I pour that love into every dish I create.
