I'm a recent graduate from the Atlantic Cape Community College's Academy of Culinary Arts. I absolutely love food, always have. Over the years my tastes of expanded and developed. I find constantly that something I did not like at one point I suddenly love. Food is my life needless to say. I have a cat named Black Jack. He is the craziest cat I have ever met and super adorable. I also love to travel, read, watch movies, and just goof off. I admit I am a procrastinator and have put off many things to the last minute, however my recent experience in Ohio has helped me to mature more. Well that's enough about me.
