My siblings Christy, Lupe, and Angel for one, because without them supporting me every single day trying out the food that I had made and brought back home for them to try even if it didn't fit their taste they had given me their honest but positive feedback. Also my coworkers at Menards but mainly both of my managers, Kialani and Alicia because due to having a full schedule at College, transitioning from having one job to two jobs, and having many emotional meltdowns. They helped me get through all that, helped me focus on what was important to me in that moment, and very flexible with my schedule if I ever needed to change it. They were also very willing to try out the different types of foods that I had brought to let them try. Thank you!

Having a hands on experience and having each day that were our lab days or events for our club feel like a team effort at the end of the day. Seeing the smiles of each person that I had given may be a once in a lifetime experience to when I was either in my chefs uniform or my server uniform.

Find a job that I will love, continuing my education, and continue having fun experimenting and learning more about what I can do to change a recipe.

The new adventures that I will have wherever I end up going to either a new town, state or even country.
