How do memories of home continue to influence your work?
I’m originally from Ridgewood, New Jersey. I’m most influenced by all of the farms that surrounded me there. It allowed me to keep my food simple, while letting the great produce shine.

What’s your earliest food memory?
I remember, in kindergarten, writing a recipe for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Still delicious—
no crust!

How does living on the East End inform your cooking and culinary creativity?
Living on the East End really shows you the importance of the community around you—meaning farmers, fisherman, as well as local artists. Working together inspires creativity when everybody performs at a high level.

Which Long Island wine are you drinking these days?
Macari Vineyards 2017 Rosé.
