Jessica Cheng
Private Chef
I've always loved to cook. Ever since I was a kid, the kitchen was my happy place—a space where I could be creative, connect with others, and bring joy through food. That passion has led me to FilosoFitness, where I get to do what I love every day: prepare flavorful, nourishing meals that help people feel their best.
My cooking style is all about fun, creativity, and connection. I specialize in Asian and Italian cuisine, blending bold flavors with fresh, wholesome ingredients. One of my favorite dishes to prepare is salmon, and I never shy away from using fish sauce to add depth and umami to my creations.
For me, cooking isn’t just about making great-tasting food—it’s about fueling the body with the right nutrients to support energy, wellness, and an overall healthy lifestyle. I love building relationships with clients and seeing how food can enhance their daily lives.
When I’m not in the kitchen, you’ll find me doing Pilates, going to spas, shopping, or sipping on a matcha latte (my absolute favorite!). I’ve also traveled to over 10 countries, and I love bringing global inspiration into my cooking.
Being a chef with FilosoFitness is truly a dream come true. My goal is to create an experience that connects people with food in a meaningful way, making healthy eating both delicious and fulfilling.
Bobby Mortazavi
Private Chef
My name is Babak Mortazavi, but most people call me Bobby. I’ve been a chef for over 10 years, drawing inspiration from my Iranian roots and a lifelong passion for food.
My background includes hands-on experience in restaurants, catering, and private chef work, where I’ve led kitchen teams, crafted Persian-inspired menus, and hosted pop-up dinners throughout the Bay Area.
My cooking style blends bold, seasonal flavors with traditional techniques, influenced by Persian, Mediterranean, and California cuisines. I focus on whole ingredients, vibrant herbs, and clean, balanced nutrition—always aiming to create meals that nourish and connect people.
One of my favorite ingredients is sumac; it adds brightness and depth to so many dishes. A fun fact about me: I once hosted an underground dinner for 40 people in a greenhouse. Outside the kitchen, I enjoy music, biking, and discovering local food spots.
What drew me to FilosoFitness is their thoughtful approach to food, health, and client care. I’m excited to help people feel energized and inspired through food—without ever sacrificing joy or flavor.
Ashley Walker
Private Chef
Hi, I’m Ashley Walker—a self-taught chef from the heart of Mississippi with over 20 years of experience in the kitchen. My roots are in Southern cooking, but I’ve spent years reimagining the classics with a healthier, lighter twist. I truly believe comfort food and clean eating can live on the same plate.
​
Growing up surrounded by rich culinary traditions, I learned to cook with intuition, love, and a whole lot of flavor. Today, I bring that same energy into every kitchen I step into—creating meals that are wholesome, satisfying, and full of soul.
​
Whether I’m preparing weekly meals for a busy family or putting together a special dinner, my goal is always the same: to nourish both body and spirit with food that feels like home.
