About
With over 12 years of experience in fine dining across the West Coast, I bring the skill, creativity, and care of restaurant cooking into a private setting. My career has included roles as a Pastry Chef in Michelin-starred restaurants as well as Head Chef positions, giving me a strong foundation in both Culinary and Pastry arts with classical French training.
I take pride in being attentive and personable, always tailoring each menu to fit the tastes, dietary needs, and preferences of my clients. My cooking style reflects both my multicultural background and my commitment to sustainability—I strive to minimize waste and highlight seasonal, ethically sourced ingredients.
For me, food is about more than flavor; it’s about creating experiences that feel personal, memorable, and truly special.

Working with Chef Maia was an amazing experience. She professionally prepared 50 lbs of anticuchos (a Peruvian street food delicacy) in record time. This dish takes an insane amount of knife skills and we know because we have been making this dish for 15+ years. This year, we wanted to outsource some of the work and we couldn’t have been in better hands. We were honestly blown away how easy she made it look. Chef Maia’s knife skills are incredible. She was on-time, professional, responsive and such a work horse. It was truly a pleasure to work with her. Thank you Chef Maia!!

Chef Maia served us a family style dinner for our party of 10. Flat bread pizzas, dips, salads, tofu and pie for dessert. Everything was delicious and she was very kind and professional. We hope to host another party using her services again!
