Born and raised in Jamaica, I grew up surrounded by the bold, vibrant flavors of Caribbean cooking. My grandmother was always at the stove, creating meals from the heart, and that love for food stayed with me through every stage of life. Today, as the creator behind HomeCookVibe, I’m passionate about sharing recipes that are big on flavor but easy enough for busy families. My cooking style blends my Caribbean roots with modern family cooking, combining bold seasonings, fresh ingredients, and time-saving techniques like one-pan and one-pot meals. I find inspiration everywhere-from watching every season of MasterChef to following food creators across social media. I love seeing a dish, tasting something new, or even watching a viral trend and thinking, “How can I make this my own?” While I don’t have formal culinary training, my passion and creativity have built a thriving online community of home cooks. I was recently featured in VoyageMIA magazine, where I shared my journey of balancing motherhood, entrepreneurship, and my love for food. My signature dishes, One pan Salmon and Shrimp Rotini, Creamy Garlic Chicken and Potatoes and Brown Stew Chicken are among the most-loved by my audience because they’re full of flavor yet simple enough for weeknights. Now living in Florida with my husband and our two daughters, I’m excited to start teaching local cooking workshops, helping families discover that home-cooked meals can be both easy and delicious. What makes me unique? I bring the warmth of Caribbean flavors into modern, approachable cooking, creating recipes that busy families can actually enjoy making and eating together. As a mom, I want my girls to grow up loving food from all cultures, and I hope my recipes bring that same joy to kitchens everywhere.
