What is your signature dish?

I can’t say I have one. I’m normally like a go with the flow whatever my kids are asking or if I’m just trying to expand on my skill to try something different but I would say seafood is probably my favorite thing to cook

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Our culinary inspiration would be my mom, my dad and Marcus Samuelsson

What would you do with the $25,000?

Put it towards helping me obtain my dream of owning a restaurant/food truck
