Food is my Passion I take great pride in everything I do and have great respect for food itself. My style of cooking is to take simple ingredients and transform it into a delicious work of art. I like to put my twist on classic recipes as well as create new ones. My goal in my career is to inspire and educate others to cook and enjoy food as much as I do.
