Hello everyone!
Finished at the Culinary Institute, just have 5 more weeks of my externship. I will be graduating June 5th with National Honors. Almost there...
In the process of buying a British Double Decker Bus and will convert for food sales. I will be continuing food service at events, but in addition will be doing fine dining on the top deck once a week by reservation only. I will travel around the State. Dreams almost there. I also bought a pizza oven and will be adding that to my menu on certain days....

Thank you for your support!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who donated and shared my cause to go to Culinary school. I was fitted and officially registered with the Arizona Culinary Institute this past week in Scottsdale. The school starts Sept 29, 2025. Although I did not come near my goal for the Go fund me that was set up, I did secure a Federal Student Loan. Once again thank you all for helping...
