Right now, I'm a student, majoring in Illustration. After I graduate, plan on going to the city for makeup and styling. I live in the gym, snowboard and just started competing in bikini / fitness model shows.
I just started really cooking and baking a lot 4 years ago after my parents got divorced. I wanted to be able to cook quick and easy dinners for my brother and father and learn how to make all my familie's traditional recipes for holidays and special occasions. Now, I just love to cook, bake, and share with others.
I have become known for my pumpkin and banana breads and also my chocolate chunk nut cookies. They are constantly requested by my boyfriend and his co workers!
