Who or what inspires you to cook?

My mother inspires me to cook. Growing up, she’d make sure I sat in the kitchen with her after school and help make dinner. She made sure we never ate the same food multiple times in a week. Even when times were extremely difficult financially, she made sure I had balanced meals every single day.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

My all time favorite dish to make is Fufu and goat meat light soup.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would start a restaurant with my parents and use the profit from our sales to invest in one of my nonprofit's initiatives, which has an upcoming project to feed people on the streets and people in rural areas who do not have access to food and safe water.
