Cooking with her beloved grandmother in the kitchen at 5 years old, a young Chef Sherie discovered the gift of culinary artistry in its raw beauty, power, and vitality.

Chef Sherie has been cooking ever since, bringing rustic, bright flavors to the table with loving care and devotion to her craft.
After graduating from Johnson and Wales University in Providence Rhode Island where she received her Master’s Degree in Culinary Arts in 2000, Sherie was a Sous chef at a fine dining Northern Italian restaurant, Executive Chef for an upscale eatery, then she became a Corporate Executive Chef before relocating to Los Angeles in 2005 to pursue a career as a personal chef.
Sherie’s culinary style has continued to evolve and expand, centering on a philosophy of holistic health and well-being. Sherie deepened her understanding of the importance of food source and individual farmer’s agricultural process at the Santa Monica Farmers Market.
