I am Chef Juszina, a professional chef who has a passion for preparing and serving “comfort food." I also enjoy teaching young dreamers the skills and techniques of cooking and following their dreams.

​

I have been cooking since the age of seven, learning from my mother in her kitchen. I can remember assisting my Mother with cooking for our family of ten while growing up. I had an eagerness to learn and I graduated from the Indianapolis Chef Academy and from there, Classy Diva Caterers & Gourmet Meal Prep, was birthed. Being the owner of my own insurance company, I have developed impeccable customer service skills which have transitioned into my catering business as well. It took a lot of long hours and sleepless nights, getting my businesses started but I wouldn’t change a thing!

​

When people taste my food it brings joy to them.  From the smiles I receive, to the shaking of their head and tapping of their feet in complete satisfaction, warms my soul.  That is truly an indication of a job well done! I wouldn’t have it any other way. What I want people to know about me is my kitchen is my happy place. It takes me away to a whole different world. Knowing that I can please a palate and fill a belly, is dear to my heart. I want to change the way people look at food.  Food doesn’t have to be boring, it can be exciting and very sexy. It is like going on a first date, your first impression can be a lasting impression, so you want to get the flavors and the plating right your first try. As a chef, I want to ensure that everything is pleasing visually because people taste with their eyes before their mouth. I love colors that pop and love to infuse different color fruits and veggies in my meals. You can’t go wrong with these. I am obsessed with a scrumptious looking plate and with flavors that wake up the palate. Allow me to bring you into my magical world of food with a sprinkle of “FAVA FLAVORS”, and all this goodness wrapped into one plate! Your tastebuds will definitely thank me later!
