Who is your culinary inspiration?My mother and aunt are my culinary inspirations. They showed me how food can bring family together and create meaningful experiences. Their passion for cooking and hospitality inspired me to pursue a career in the culinary arts and share that same love through every dish I create.
What would you do with the $25,000?If selected as Favorite Chef, I would use the $25,000 to help launch and grow my culinary business. The funds would support equipment purchases, branding, marketing, and expanding my private chef, catering, and cooking class services. As a Culinary Arts educator, this opportunity would allow me to turn my passion for food, hospitality, and mentorship into a business that serves the community while inspiring future chefs.
