What is your signature dish?

My Grandmother's Caramel Cake is more than a dessert. It is a family legacy passed down through generations. Every layer reminds me of Sunday dinners, laughter in the kitchen, and the women who taught me that food is one of the purest expressions of love.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Both my maternal Grandmother and my Paternal Great Grandmother loved their Families with Great food, tough Love and powerful words for guidance.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Although I plan to hit the road running on expanding my business, I’ve worked so hard for many years and even of late and haven’t truly rested my soul. I would love to rest about a Month to allow my mind and body to align properly with one another. $25,000 will truly afford me the time needed.
