What's your favorite thing to bake?

I don’t have a favorite. Baking is where I can be creative and experiment with flavors. I love trying new recipes and I’m not afraid to fail. Failure and experimentation drives invention. Some family recipes hold a special place in my heart though including my Peanut-butter Milk chocolate cookies. Simple, from the heart, and delicious!

How long have you been baking?

My mom taught me family recipes and baking from an early age. I started cooking and baking with her at 5 years old. My mom’s side of the family is from France and baking has always been a big part of my family and how we show love.

What would you do with the $20,000?

20,000 dollars would change my life. I unfortunately went through some serious medical problems and my heart failed. I have a pacemaker now and I’m doing better now than ever before. It would help lift my little family of 3 out of the hardships my heart issues caused. More than the money, competing and winning would prove to myself and my son that we can do anything we set our minds to despite the obstacles placed before us.
