Who or what inspires you to cook?

My mother was the inspiration for my cooking. I learned my cooking from her and then gradually improve my skills on my own. I look up to my mother for being a hard-working woman, even though she was married to my dad my dad was never around. He always worked at a state, and my mom was the one that took care of us on her own.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

I would have to say all my dishes are my favorite dishes. I can’t just pick one I love food.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take this money and probably pay off my car and pay off a few months rent because I just lost my job
