Who or what inspires you to cook?

My grandma. I started working with her in a bar kitchen at 13 doing dishes. Than to prep work on the weekends to a full time cook/bartender/server before I finished high school.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

Anything that makes people happy or comforts their soils. Anything new that I’ve never made before.. I love making soups and stews. Frying some pork chops and a big pot of greens and Mac n cheese.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Buy myself a small food truck and invest in myself.
