State Street Ribs LLC

Life has a funny way of redirecting us.

After years in education policy and nonprofit leadership — most recently as a state director — my role was dissolved due to funding cuts.

At first, I panicked. My career was my identity. But in that pause, I returned to something that’s always grounded me: cooking.

What started as therapy became a small business. And what began in a boardroom is now finding new life in a kitchen.

So here I am, starting again — consulting for mission-driven orgs by day, building my food brand by night.

This page is now a space for healing. storytelling, and soul food.

I co-own a brick and mortar BBQ Soul Food restaurant in Rochester by which I have managed catering and operations for 9 years.

I have done solo pop ups and catering for 3 years around Buffalo and Rochester, New York for up to 30 people under the name of Supreme Sunday.

Cuisines include classic comfort food, Caribbean soul, Italian and Mexican fusion. Our small but passionate team is dedicated to making your dining experience unforgettable. From personal chef services to full-blown event planning, we handle it all, so you can sit back, relax, and savor the flavors. Come taste the difference!
