Who or what inspires you to cook?

My mother inspired me to cook from an early age. I was always in the kitchen with both my Grandmother's and my Mama. Also I love to feed people, I love the way feeding folks lights up their lives when food is amazing and they are experiencing it with Friends and Family

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

Cajun Gumbo is one of my favorite dishes to make. The time and love that is put into this dish shows people you care. The depth of flavors and heritage of this dish makes me want to continue my journey feeding people and making memories with food.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use this to travel and continue my food journey and learn as much about food as possible.
