Who or what inspires you to cook?

Growing up I watched cooking shows and was so inspired to do just that. My GMA use to take me to the soup kitchen, just seeing how people lit up over a good meal just did it for me. Been cooking since 9 yrs old. I loved frying fish with her on Friday’s. Cooking spreads love an thats what I love to do.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

To be honest my favorite thing to cook is whatever my clients need or want. Giving them that experience is my favorite. See I’m in love with cooking, so I cook from the heart.

What would you do with the $25,000?

The Money would be an investment into myself, to build on the brand I’ve been working on for 8 years. My business could really take off with this opportunity.
