What is your signature dish?

Enchiladas in red sauce with Spanish rice

Who is your culinary inspiration?

The chef I consider an inspiration is Anthony Bourdain, his love of food, people and different cultures is truly inspiring. From fine dining to street food I hope to be as successfully diverse as he.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use it to start up a California Mexican food business in Jamestown, Rhode Island. Because of the lack of California style food in the heart of New England.
