Who or what inspires you to cook?

My ideas truly inspire cooking. Whether it’s an ingredient that sparks my curiosity or a recipe I want to make my own, that creative drive is what fuels me. I also find so much joy in hearing people's thoughts and reactions, and it motivates me to continuously improve and push myself to improve at what I do.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

My favorite dish to make is definitely cheesecake. I take a lot of pride in my recipe, and honestly, I haven’t come across one that I think beats it. It’s a recipe I’m really passionate about, and every time I make it, I put everything into perfecting it! :)

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the $25,000, I would genuinely like to pay off the remaining balance of my schooling and then invest the rest into either growing my home business or starting a bakery!
