“I HAVE A THIRST AND CURIOSITY FOR CUISINES,TRADITIONS AND LANGUAGES. AT 14 YEARS OLD, MY CURIOSITY BROUGHT ME TO A NEW YORK CITY RESTAURANT. I WANTED TO LEARN HOW TO COOK ITALIAN FOOD AND TO LEARN ABOUT ENTREPRENEURSHIP. THREE YEARS LATER MY INTERNSHIPS CONTINUE.”

“A PASSION FOR WHAT YOU DO, DO NOT FEAR FAILURE, PATIENCE IN DEALING WITH OTHERS, BOUNCE BACK FROM SETBACKS, BE HONEST, SHOW RESPECT FOR OTHERS, SERVE YOUR COMMUNITY, IT JUST MIGHT BE A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS!”
