Amber grew up in Cape Town but has since been a traveler who has lived and worked on 4 different continents. Her love for food came from a very young age when she grew up sitting on the kitchen counter watching her father cook incredible meals inspired from all over the world. This developed her pallet widely and conjured a great passion for food! However, prior to completely committing to being a chef, she first did a degree in business, specializing in entrepreneurship and then a 200hour Internationally recognized yoga course. It was while living and teaching yoga in Thailand that she finally fell into her role as chef while at a Wellness retreat. From there the journey began and she sought out professional training in addition to her already strong base of ability. She is now in her happiest part of her life and career, chef on luxury catamarans for the past 4 years. A place to truly commit to the beauty of culinary experience, all while on a wonderful sailing adventure!
