What is your signature dish?

I really don’t have a signature dish. I can make from pasta dishes to American food, soul food, Puerto Rican food a-little bit of Chinese food and Italian but of course my way. I can make from breakfast plates to lunch and dinner meals.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

I come from a Puerto Rican background born in the US but at home very Latina. And my grandma and mother are the two who are my inspiration. They are the ones who taught me how to cook and passed down traditions and recipes

What would you do with the $25,000?

Would help me start my business. To kick off and start running
