ABOUT
HOW I APPROACH
Design
Every cake starts with a conversation.
I ask a lot of questions. I want to understand not just what a cake should look like, but why it matters. Whether it's inspired by a couple's story, a favorite hobby, or a treasured memory, the details matter.
Once I understand the vision, I research everything I can. I study reference photos, colors, textures, materials, and the little details that make a design feel authentic. Sometimes that research takes longer than making the cake itself.
I don't follow a formula. I gather information, solve problems, and build each cake piece by piece until it feels right.
My goal is simple: create something personal, meaningful, and memorable.
Why I do This
I've always needed a creative outlet.
Over the years, I've explored creativity in many different forms. My career in the semiconductor industry challenged me to think analytically and solve complex problems, but no matter where life took me, I was always searching for a creative outlet. No matter what I was doing, I was always drawn to taking an idea and bringing it to life
When I made my first cake in 2009, I knew almost nothing about cake decorating. I taught myself through trial and error, plenty of mistakes, and a willingness to try things I had no business attempting. More than fifteen years later, I'm still learning the same way.
What keeps me doing this today isn't perfection—it's the challenge.
I love looking at an idea and wondering, "Can that actually be made out of cake?"
Sometimes it’s an elegant wedding cake. Sometimes it's a sculpted golf bag, a whiskey bottle, or a cow named Molly Moo that made me smile every time I opened the refrigerator door.
