His Nouveau Louisiane cuisine has been a driving force melding Louisiana and Southern foods with international flavor and technique. This is reflected in his savory bites as well as the playful southern sweets at Whisk Dessert Bar.

He has a passion for regenerative farming reflected in his rancher and farmer relationships, bringing local and sustainable food to Northwest Louisiana.
