Who is your culinary inspiration?My culinary inspiration is my mother. I’ve watched her cook for weddings, events and festivals. I was always front and center because I wanted to be just like her.
What would you do with the $25,000?The first thing would be to buy a house for my children. They are who matter most in my life, then I’ll spoil myself with a food truck lol so I can spoil the world with my love for cooking.
