"I don't even know where to start!"

I hear this all the time. I know how this feels.... why? Because I was there.  "How do I get my first client?"  "What do I need to start?"  "How do I attract more clients?" "How do I price my services?" When I started, I desperately needed a mentor to guide me in the right direction, skip unnecessary steps, and say, "Do this, then this, not this!"  So, with 100+ dinner parties later, happy clients, and a life I am in complete control over... teaching you how to do it from the ground up without culinary school or prior restaurant experience is my mission. You will learn a step-by-step roadmap for turning your love of cooking into a thriving private chef business, even if you’ve never worked in a restaurant, don’t know where to start, or are pivoting careers.  Inside, you’ll learn how to craft a signature offer, confidently price your services, create a seamless client experience, know what tools/ certifications/ insurance you need, market yourself, and book your first client. This course combines practical business strategy with real behind-the-scenes insights from my own journey becoming a private chef at 19. Whether you want more freedom, more income, or a career that aligns with your passion, this program gives you the clarity, confidence, and tools to build it from the ground up.

Hi! I'm Amanda

a private chef, baker, and entrepreneur who built a full-time culinary business at 19 without restaurant chef experience, or a traditional path.  I went from dropping out of civil engineering in my third year of college to cooking intimate dinners, running events, teaching workshops, and creating a sustainable, freedom-based career on my own terms.  Along the way, I learned exactly what works (and what doesn’t) when you’re starting from zero. I created this course because I wish something like this existed when I was trying to figure it all out! My goal is to shorten your learning curve, help you avoid the mistakes I made, and give you the confidence and structure to build a private chef business that feels aligned, profitable, and uniquely yours.

Amanda’s private chef course gave me so much clarity on how to get started and what it actually looks like to step into this work. One of my favorite takeaways was the mindset shift of simply starting to call yourself a chef! It sounds simple, but it really helped me overcome some hesitation I had around not having formal culinary training. The videos were very informative, easy to follow, and had a supportive, instructive tone that made learning feel approachable. I feel significantly more confident and knowledgeable about becoming a private chef than I did before starting the course, and I’m really grateful for the experience. Thank you, Amanda!!

Why Now?

If you’ve been thinking about becoming a private chef, waiting won’t make it clearer;  action will. Most people stay stuck not because they lack talent, but because they keep waiting for the “right time,” more confidence, or more experience. This program exists to remove that delay by giving you a clear roadmap and real support, so you’re not figuring everything out alone. The sooner you start, the sooner you build momentum, and momentum is what creates confidence, clients, and income. You don’t need to be ready. You just need to begin.

What This Course Is Not

This is not a cooking class. I won’t teach you how to sauté, bake, or plate. Instead, this program focuses on the business, systems, strategy, and client experience behind becoming a successful private chef: the part no one talks about, but the part that actually builds a career.
