Seeking for an externship that allows me to build on the skills I have built in my work experience, my personal life and at the Culinary Institute of America. Cooking is my passion and I want to work with equally passionate individuals in a high-performing environment. Very open to various cuisines that build on my current skill set and culinary experiences. Particular passion for New Orleans cuisine but always eagerly looking to experience different types of food and their cultural background.
