I am a traveler and musician who loves to meet new people and get my hands dirty when it comes to work. I am a very precise worker with the ability to adapt to a change in situation. I am punctual and reliable. I follow directions and I am able to work with minimal supervision. Through my Caribbean roots, I have developed a love for food and pastry and I enjoy every part of it, from picking fresh ingredients, cooking and washing dishes. I focus on healthy and balanced choices, bold flavors and how to incorporate at-home cooking with our busy lives. I am a home cook who love creating and experiencing with different ingredients and flavor from around the world. As a world traveler, I've had the opportunity to taste different foods and see how the locals prepare their meals. My focus is on fresh ingredients, healthy choices and bold flavors.
