Hi, I’m Chef Joy.
Joy B

I create soulful, elevated meals that help you build a better relationship with food—right in your home.

I bring soulful, wellness-forward dining to your table—made from scratch and crafted with intention.

I’ve loved being in the kitchen since I was a young girl—it’s where I’ve always felt at home and free to create. I started my first food business while studying Molecular Biology & Microbiology at the University of Central Florida: a soul food delivery service built on real, affordable, scratch-made Southern cooking.

Over time, my work naturally expanded into catering, private chef services, and cooking classes. With 10+ years of experience across Soul Food, Fine American Dining, fusion, and plant-based cuisine, I’ve cooked for trade shows, private events, restaurants, and in-home experiences—and I especially love creating uplifting, intimate meals that excite the senses and make healthy habits feel indulgent.

My intuition, my spirituality, and my innate understanding of chemistry guide everything I create in the kitchen.

Chef Joshua

Cooking is my therapy—and my way to connect people

Cooking is therapy for me, and it’s also how I bring people together around a shared experience. I design meals that feel comforting, exciting, and memorable—because the table is where connection happens.

Chef Joshua

I’m self-taught, refined by classical training

I’m self-taught, and throughout my career I’ve studied under classically trained chefs. That blend helps me honor soulful roots while executing with polish, balance, and creativity across cuisines.

I cook with intuition, spirit, and science

My intuition, my spirituality, and my innate understanding of chemistry shape my approach. I love exploring color and sensation, and I’m always looking for inventive ways to make plants and indulgence coexist beautifully.
