Who or what inspires you to cook?

My grandfather would joke and say it was him, he would bake cookies with me as a child, but it was on a whim to do cooking and things just really worked out for me, I love it

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

I love rich foods, rich sauces, I love playing with new foods and trying out dishes I haven’t done before, each time I make a dish I do it a little different each time! Keep it fresh

What would you do with the $25,000?

I have a huge travel bug! I’d go see some countries I haven't been to before and experience the local foods, pick up some new techniques maybe
