I am a self-proclaimed ‘food nerd’, but I didn’t put that food knowledge to work until I founded Petojo Food & Catering with my brother, Anthony, in 2015.
Before that, I graduated with honours from Humber College’s Fashion Arts program in 2006 then earned a certificate in Project Management from The University of Toronto. I honed my business acumen and event and project management skills leading the Marketing and Operations team at a global recruitment and executive search firm based in Toronto and specializing advertising, marketing, and web development.
Bitten by the travel bug, I travelled across North America, Europe and parts of Asia, eating everything from musubi from one of Portland, OR’s infamous food trucks to Catalan-style croquettes at Barcelona’s famed Tapas 24. These adventures have served as an unconventional culinary education sharpening my ability to uncover food trends and restaurants before most. I like to boast that I ate at New York’s Estela before Barack Obama did.
I love designing a menu and service for couples that go beyond what we’re used to seeing and eating at weddings. My goal is to create an experience that celebrates the couple while delighting guests, making them feel like they are part of a truly one-of-a-kind event.
Cooking is a calling for me. I grew up in a food-conscious home, so it was inevitable that I would answer the call and start honing my craft early. First at Fanshawe College's apprentice program, then working to earn my Red Seal Certification before the age of 23. I travelled across the pond, working in the world-renowned Oxo Tower Brasserie and Restaurant in London, England. Understanding that eating is the key to good cooking, I followed my tastebuds to many parts of Europe, Asia and the US, discovering new flavours, ingredients and techniques to incorporate in my cuisine.
In 2013, I was awarded a James Beard scholarship and returned to Canada to attend The Art Institute of Vancouver’s Hospitality and Restaurant Business Management program. Learning in both the kitchen and front of house environments, I earned a Merit Award and made both the President’s List and the Dean’s List at the Institute.
I have had the honour of working in some of London, ON’s top restaurants including Idelwyld Inn, David’s Bistro, Tru Restaurant and Lounge, The Church Key, North Moore Catering, The River Room at Museum London, Abruzzi Ristorante, and more recently, Milos' Craft Beer Emporium.
I love collaborating with clients to create the right menu that represents their union but also delights guests.
