Growing up in a family of exceptional chefs, I developed a deep appreciation for scratch-made meals and the medicinal power of food. Earning my culinary license from the Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts and training under Chef Monica Thomas, the USPCA’s 2012 Personal Chef of the Year, reinforced my belief that food is more than just sustenance—it’s healing, energizing, and deeply nourishing. That philosophy is at the heart of Bahiyah’s Bites.
In 2021, during the COVID era, I felt a strong desire to develop a meaningful skill.
