Where are you from and what high school did you attend?

I’m from Boston and I go to Cathedral High School. 

Besides cooking, what other passions and interests do you have? How do you fulfill these passions and interests?

I’m passionate about the arts and I fulfill that by writing and drawing on my own time. 

What would you tell other young people who are interested in joining our program about Future Chefs?

I would say join it if you truly want to grow and not just do it to pass the time.

What are your school, career, and life goals over the next 3-5 years?

In five years I would like to be done with my undergraduate and maybe doing an internship. Personally want to be out of my house at least living with a roommate and financially stable.   

Did you have an interest in food before joining Future Chefs?

I had an interest in food, it is part of why I joined FC to learn more and be more comfortable in the kitchen.

Would you recommend FC to other young people?

I would recommend it because it's a really good opportunity to gain more skills and confidence. Future Chefs is a safe space with other peers and there are so many opportunities you can gain from it.
