No. 01

Extreme elegance, zero shortcuts.

Every plate is built like a moment. Restaurant-quality courses in your own kitchen — clients call it "high-end restaurant quality" even in a small condo kitchen. That's the standard.

No. 02

Health-conscious. Actually delicious.

Keto, vegan, performance, medical — strict diets are my specialty. I cooked for a man in kidney and organ failure for 10+ months, working with his doctor to extend his life through food. Clean flavors that keep people pleased and alive.

No. 03

Cooked for champions.

Amir Khan's fight camp. Dee Ford's Pro Bowl season. Charvarius Ward. Fortune 500 executives, tech founders, the writer of Toy Story. When the stakes are high, they call The Session.

No. 04

There is no chef like this.

Young, tatted, fly — and classically trained at Johnson & Wales, top 5 in every culinary class. Larry June elegance, Ramsay standards, my swag. You've never hired anyone like me, and your guests will talk about it for years.

#1 on Yelp — 6 straight years

Ranked the #1 private chef in San Jose, California six years running. Now 4.9★ across 33 reviews in Texas.

World-class athletes

Private chef & dietary nutrition for boxers Amir Khan and Mario Barrios. Chef to 49ers Dee Ford (Pro Bowl season) and Charvarius Ward — coordinating directly with team nutritionists.

Fortune 500 tables

Clients include executives from Microsoft and PayPal, a 49ers offensive coordinator, and the writer of Toy Story. Private chef for Anheuser-Busch's Silicon Valley headquarters and Comma AI.

Johnson & Wales trained

Top 5 in every culinary class at one of the nation's elite culinary programs. Two years as a professional food writer. Nutrition and dietary nutrition coursework.

Food that extends life

Cooked 10+ months for a client in kidney and organ failure — his doctor reached out to help prolong his life through food. Strict medical diets are where I separate from every other chef.

Community first

Personally hand-fed 150+ homeless neighbors with home-cooked meals. The same care that feeds executives feeds the community.

Meet Your Chef

The Session. Sesh.

Johnson & Wales trained. Six years the #1-ranked private chef in San Jose. Featured in Culture Magazine as the "Vegan Visionary." Young, tatted, elegant — there is no other chef who looks like this, cooks like this, or cares like this.

From championship fight camps to Fortune 500 tables to a client whose life was extended through food — every plate carries the same promise: pleased and alive.

1M+ followers watch the lifestyle — my clients live it. I help men escape the matrix through the body: real food, real discipline, real health.

"My kitchen is on the small side (condo) but Sesh was able to create a high-end restaurant quality dinner regardless."

"I thought it was going to be a regular Super Bowl party with the same old nachos and dips, but I was wrong."

Yelp Review ↗
