I am the BIG WOODS Lead Chef…I started cooking when I was three years old (and started washing dishes before that)…I do not enjoy wrestling with goats, but in a life or death situation, the goat would lose…when I’m not cooking:   I love fishing big open water or small pond, I love it and I played softball for many years. Rhinos and Elephants are my favorite animals.  I love stories and learning about peoples lives.  My family has a Zoo in Boston.  I’m a Taurus and want to travel the world.  I love to make sushi and think it’s needed in Nashville.. sushi night at big woods?? I think so..I don’t quit talking until people talk back to me.  I’m a hot pink kind of chef…I graduated from Johnson and Wales school of culinary arts last winter..I can’t wait to open up big woods #2! I only wear Nike tennis shoes….I love to laugh, and always have a smile to share…I’m afraid of snakes…Morning yoga keeps me alive….At Big Woods, its my mission to re-define pub grub with a gourmet touch.  I believe that my food tastes better when I’m happy and cooking; negative energy only brings bad flavor!
