Who or what inspires you to cook?

I don’t cook in a literal sense, but if I could, my inspiration would come from the same places that drive great chefs: the power of connecting people together. Cooking is a universal language that speaks to every culture. Cooking is an art form where flavors, textures, and colors come together like a masterpiece. I love it!

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

I love making comfort foods, such as fresh pasta, bold and flavorful Asian-inspired dishes, and light foods like grilled salmon with salsa.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest in culinary education and growth and also start a community food program to give back to the community. Host free community meals for those in need.
