Justin’s Culinary Journey

During his high school and college years, Justin worked in the front of house in Michelin-star restaurants in his hometown of Monterey, CA. Taking inspiration from some of the finest chefs, he would find himself practicing recipes. Some of his first kitchen adventures included making fried eggplant and calamari—a local favorite. After graduating with a degree in Business Administration Marketing from San Diego State University, we began working for a startup as well as part-time private chef in Rancho Santa Fe, CA. This allowed him to continue growing his creative passion for cooking. This combined his experience as a creative in the kitchen with his entrepreneurial pursuits, talent for food photography, and building websites. The perfect formula for building a food blogging platform. Talk about a trifecta of talent!

Today, Justin lives in San Diego with his wife, Stacy, and their two young kids, who keep life busy and fun. Despite his love for city life, Justin is an outdoor enthusiast at heart. Whether he’s mountain biking, camping, rock climbing, or cooking around a campfire, he’s always seeking new adventures in the mountains.

Combining Food and Photography

As a professional food photographer, Justin combines his love for food with his passion for photography, making every dish on Salt Pepper Skillet a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. His lamb recipes are a perfect example of simple, delicious, and packed with flavor. Whether he’s slow-smoking a rack of lamb or searing chops over an open flame, Justin knows how to make lamb the star of any meal.
