Additional Information
I love to cook, and learn more about food. My enjoyment of being in the kitchen has made me more open-minded towards all sorts of foods, as well as the people and places related to those foods. Working at a place such as LBB would feel less like work, especially since I would be having fun with what I would be doing.
