Why did you decide to apply for
Top Chef? Was it something you always wanted to do?
When I started cooking in Delaware, Ohio, my chef and I would watch every single episode of
Top Chef almost religiously every week.
Top Chef was really inspirational to us. I never once thought that I would be on
Top Chef. Not going to lie. I received a message from a casting agency and I was just like, this is not real, there's no way this is going on. It's 2020 though, so I thought, let's see how far this goes. Before I knew it, I was on a plane to Portland and I was there. I still don't know how it happened but I get excited just thinking about it. It's crazy.
