Who or what inspires you to cook?

To be honest, since a kid I have always been a big fan of Gordon Ramsay. However, growing up I saw my grandfather cook often. When he passed, my mother cooked and even though my dad doesn’t know how to cook he always tried. I’ve always had that cooking bone in my body. I will say that my stepfather pushed me to enjoy cooking. I did culinary all 4 years high school, along with a bit in college. I’m so happy he pushed me.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

My people will tell you I make a crazy filet mignon. However, with my personal opinion it’s between enchiladas or Rasta pasta.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Growing up as the only child, I took care of my mother. A lot happened between then but it’s safe to say, I chose love for myself. I’m still having to really start my life over. With this 25,000 I will invest into myself but also land. My goal has always been to own land, start a farm/garden and sell produce. I also would donate a good portion to help the homeless, children in need & AFSP. Thank you!
