About Us

Hello! We’re the team behind Modern Cook’s Digest!

About Us

We’re a team of creators, developers, and food enthusiasts with backgrounds in both technology and the kitchen. One of our founders studied culinary arts at Sullivan College in Louisville, KY, and spent years working in fine dining restaurants, catering companies, and hotels. That experience instilled in us a deep respect for the craft of cooking and gave us the discipline and creativity we bring to everything we do today.

Eventually, we transitioned into the world of software and digital content, bringing with us the same attention to detail, work ethic, and passion that defined our time in professional kitchens. While we no longer cook for a living, food remains at the heart of our work, informing how we think, create, and connect with others.

We now split our time between the U.S. and Latin America, drawing inspiration from the vibrant cultures, regional ingredients, and traditional cooking techniques we experience along the way. Whether we’re writing, coding, or exploring markets, our shared passion for food and creativity is always active.

Our goal is to showcase dishes from around the globe, highlighting different traditions, ingredients, and techniques. However, you’ll likely notice a strong focus on Latin American and Mexican cuisine, mainly because those are the flavors we encounter most often and are a big part of our daily lives.

My goal is to offer straightforward, simple-to-follow recipes that are wholesome and actually taste good.


A little bit more about me

Yes, I know my stuff! And throughout our coaching time, you will develop the tools and confidence to take action.

My way of coaching is to empower you in becoming the Leader you want to be. You are unique and so your coaching should be too. I don’t follow a template, or ‘one size fits all’. We start where you are & we work towards your goals. If you want a business that generates your income while also positively contributing to others, then you have arrived at the right place!

Food photography

I also developed a love for food photography along the process and learned how to make regular meals appear as nice as they taste.

All of the food images you see on the website are mine.
