FLX AMBASSADOR
With 20 years of experience in the Finger Lakes, competing in several Food Network shows and cooking at the James Beard House in NY I have always looked for ways to showcase the region and the people that live here. I am always looking for ways to give back to the community and in particular those in need. Throughout the years I find ways to contribute, showcase and elevate others throughout our community.
"I have had the pleasure of working with Samantha on several wine pairing dinners, special events, and fun pop-ups. She is a talented chef and true professional. My guests have thoroughly enjoyed not only her amazing spreads but her approach. She thoughtfully sources all of her ingredients and takes the time to explain what she has prepared and the reasoning behind her pairings. Sam is flexible and down to earth. I am grateful to work with her."
