Who or what inspires you to cook?

My Granny! She was a caterer herself and she always had me in the kitchen with her cooking things and trying new recipes. Her love for food and bringing people together through her food inspired me to take a chance at cooking and with positive response I kept going

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

Salmon croquettes and rice and toast I absolutely love it and could eat it everyday

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the money I would be able to make a major stride in getting my Community Project “Kahu Village and Farms” off the ground and in motion
