Favorite lunch spot?
My truck! Most days I like to just relax and recharge by eating lunch in my truck. If I do go out though, Nagoya is always a good spot.
Favorite book, movie or TV show?
The Power of Habit is a really good book. Human behavior has always been of interest to me so I enjoy reading books about why people do the things they do.

If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be and why?
Seasoning food from the heart! If I don't have a recipe, my cooking will inevitably be super bland or super salty. There is no in-between.
What is one piece of advice you wish every student could hear?
Success isn't about intelligence. It's about a willingness to learn as you go, put in the work, and get back up when you fail. Your goals are attainable if you are willing to put in the work!
