I am a 28 year old Canadian female. My love for the culinary arts started in 2014, when I took my first business trip to Germany, making the new tastes and flavors I was experiencing a journey within itself. After Germany, I spent the next few years taking on jobs all around the world, where I had the opportunity to taste dishes from an extensive amount of cultures. From Ramen in Japan, to pasta in Italy, I was exposed to many different flavors and preparations of food. To me food is love, and it is a way we can all connect. I try to resemble many dishes from their original sources, and put the time, effort and passion into each dish, to ensure it is nourishing and delicious. Aside from cooking, my passions include yoga, hiking, painting, volunteering and spending time in nature. My journey in the culinary industry started with taking a pre-apprenticeship training course with an interest in changing careers. From there I started as a prep cook at a Mexican restaurant, learning how to manage in a fast paced enviornment. From there I moved to a grocery store kitchen, where we provided a variety of meals. I was placed in the bakery section as well as the chef department, where I learned new techniques of preparing food, experimented with different flavour profiles and ultimately developed a love for baking. After evolving and growing from my two previous jobs, I decided to take on a position as kitchen supervisor at the Ark Aid Street Mission. Here I learned the importance of providing the community with balanced and calorie dense meals, an extensive flavour profile and showing love with the food we made. From all of this experience I have developed great time management skills, the ability to build strong interpersonal relationships and attention to detail.

I am Arlyn and I am originally from the Philippines. I grew up in Hong Kong, lived there for about 16 years, and then came here to Canada. I am now living here with my family, my mom, dad, brother and sister, us we all moved here three years ago. Now I am looking for just a part time, and then hopefully, moving forward, having my own private catering kind of company or business. At least having my own business one day is one of my goals in life so I kind of want to start it now. Also I think in the future I'm looking for more flexible hours for myself therefore I could do a lot of different things once again I am also about planning future business and all those possibilities. Anyway my hobbies are singing, playing guitar, and dancing also I do like to paint a lot on my free time, aside from that there's nothing much that I do I stay home often during my days off if not my friends and I would go out and explore different restaurants or just new places open in downtown I’m currently working at a quite fine dining restaurant now here in London ON.

I am very passionate about the work I do in the kitchen and love to share the flavours I create with people. I have a culinary arts diploma from Fanshawe College’s culinary school downtown campus. During my time at Fanshawe I also worked at their restaurant the Chefs Table creating dishes for customers walking in for a meal.

I am in my second year of kinesiology at Western University and live in London with my family. I have been an elite athlete my whole life and got very interested in nutrition and food preparation in high school. I began meal prepping for myself and saw huge benefits in my performance and energy levels. This sparked my interest in cooking and I began trying new healthy recipes and creating my own. I meal plan every week, get the groceries, and cook dinner every night for my family as it is something I truly love to do. As someone who is very busy, having nutritious meals ready to go is a game changer and relieves a lot of stress. Over the years I have gained a lot of knowledge about nutrition and how the food you eat really does impact how you feel. I think it is super important to eat whole foods that taste good in order to continue living a healthy life while still enjoying your food. I was a personal chef for a family of four where I created a meal plan, got the groceries, and prepared four meals for the family. The family would provide some recipe suggestions and also wanted some new recipes from me. Kinesiology student at Western University with background knowledge in safe food preparation and nutrition from school courses.
