About Rebecca

My love affair with food began at 14 when I first declared I wanted to be a chef, and I’ve never looked back. Since 2010, I’ve worked in professional kitchens across a wide range of cuisines, from New American and Mexican to Jamaican and classic steakhouses. I trained in culinary school, served as a sous chef and kitchen manager, and even had the honor of catering for a Top Chef episode supporting Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign.

​

Before launching Proven Plates, I ran my own cottage bakery, Treat Me Desserts, where I poured my heart into creating custom baked goods for hundreds of families and events. That experience deepened my love for bringing people together through food, a passion that continues to guide everything I do today.

​

I started Proven Plates to share that same joy through personalized catering and in-home meal prep. From intimate dinner parties and family celebrations to large gatherings, I create food that fits the occasion and leaves a lasting impression. Every menu is designed to match your taste, your guests, and your moment.

​

When I walk into a client’s kitchen, I don’t just come to cook, I come to serve, celebrate, and make your day a little easier and a lot more delicious.

​

Because every great gathering starts and ends with great food.
