Skills & Interests

Interests

There are two types of people in this world: those who eat to live and those who live to eat, and I have to say I'm someone who lives to eat. I love exploring new foods and cuisines by visiting small niche restaurants that are the breadth of communities as well as paying homage to top-rated Michelin restaurants. I'm also studying to take my level 1 Sommelier exam to further my knowledge and understanding of food and wine. 

Besides being a foodie, I am a classically-trained trumpet player and I love going to orchestral and jazz music concerts.
