A Passion for Food

​

Food has always been a passion of mine. It began years ago with baking. My love for sweets fueled my desire to make my own. I started with cookies and cake box mixes which evolved into baking from scratch ingredients and recipes.  I knew at a young age I desired to make this my career. I wanted to go to culinary school after high school, but was unable to do so because it wasn't God's plan at the time. 

​

During my college years, I majored in IT which paid well but did not fulfill my passion like cooking.  I continued to cook and through word of mouth was soon catering events for friends.   After working in the IT field for 12 years and not being fulfilled, I knew I had to make a change to reach my full potential.  In 2012, I went to culinary school and enjoyed every minute of it, even graduated Magna Cum Laude. After graduating, the sky was the limit for me and thus, Food is Love began.
