Meet Chef Salina

Meet Chef Salina
Salina was born and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where she spent much of her childhood being cared for by her grandmother. Watching her southern-raised grandmother prepare a variety of dishes daily profoundly influenced her passion for food, both in the kitchen and beyond.
​
Following the loss of her beloved grandmother in March 2018, Salina was inspired to honor her memory. Her grandmother found her greatest joy in the kitchen, where her love of cooking served as a unifying bond for their family. After her grandmother’s passing, the family affectionately began calling Salina "Little Granny," symbolizing her taking on the role of preserving her grandmother’s legacy through food and family connections.
​
Salina has dedicated herself to developing nutritious and thoughtful meal plans, recreating some of her grandmother’s most cherished recipes, and creating new dishes of her own. She has received mentorship and guidance from renowned Chef Lisa Brooks. Through her work at Beautifully Complicated, she endeavors to prepare every dish with love, carrying forward her granny’s legacy and the warmth of togetherness and LOVE.
