how it started

 

Executive Chef & CEO

Chef Lovee

I am a Personal Chef & Caterer, Wife, and Mother. My passion for food and cooking is like the air I breathe but it still doesn’t compare to the time I love spending with my family. I love to travel and explore different cultures and meet new people. My mission is to cater to all my clients individually because I have a genuine passion for cooking and serving others.

I’ve been in the food service industry for over a decade, starting my very first job at Boston Market at the age of 15. I’ve worked at family casual restaurants like Red Lobster & Ruby Tuesday, and many fine-dining restaurants in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. I've even operated my own commercial kitchen serving 50+ children in Chesapeake, Virginia.

My first business was YumAhzeeYum where I learned how to create natural, homemade dog food and treats to heal my dog. Once my little family started to grow in 2016, MixingMama was born so that I could spend more time with my family and focus on making sure they got the very best from the inside out. 

MixingMama was created so that I could help others who face the same problems we all do; this is what MixingMama’s core values are based on. Just like you, I work very hard and I know how it feels to be so tired but still need to cook for myself and my family. I’m trying my best to raise healthy children, and I know how difficult it can be to try to get children to eat, let alone worrying about if it’s healthy. Where’s the time? Where can I find healthy cookbooks & recipes for kids?

I know how it feels to want to work out, but not have the energy because you didn’t have the right ‘food as fuel.’ There have also been times after finishing a great workout, I didn’t have a post-workout meal ready and felt like I wasted my time. Who would have known that the answer to all my problems would have been to have healthy food that I enjoyed already prepared for whenever I wanted to eat or needed to feed my family. The amount of time, money, and inches off my waistline was the first testimony for MixingMama. After that, the testimonies started to roll in! I knew I was onto something good! 

My goal is to help my clients resolve a wide range of food and beverage problems because I’ve experienced it myself. As a busy professional, mom, and active adult who wants to stay in great shape, I can totally identify with a wide range of people who all share the same issues. 

I COMMIT TO BRINGING FAMILIES & FRIENDS TOGETHER THROUGH LOVE, GREAT FOOD, AND GREAT MUSIC.

I COMMIT TO PROVIDING NATURAL AND FRESH QUALITY INGREDIENTS SO THAT YOU CAN LIVE A HAPPY AND LONG LIFE, AND SPEND MORE TIME WITH YOUR LOVED ONES.

I COMMIT TO ALWAYS BEING DEPENDABLE, POSITIVE, AND RELIABLE.

I COMMIT TO MAKING YOUR LIVES EASIER BY PROVIDING MEALS AND EXPERIENCES YOU WON’T FORGET THAT THE WHOLE FAMILY WILL ENJOY.
