"My mom was a horrible cook, so I always watched my grandma, who made a lot of Southern soul food. She died when I was 12, so I took over all the cooking. Then Mom got in the kitchen, experimented, and now she's a good cook too; you'd never know how terrible she used to be. We cook together all the time now. When I finish school, I'd like to be a personal chef. Maybe share some of my grandma's recipes." (Danshell)
"I started off with a lot of ideas about what to do as a career. Should I be a veterinarian? Should I do this or that? I probably had 32 fall-back plans. Growing up, I was always in the kitchen trying to learn everything I could from my mom and grandma, so when my mom told me, 'Do what you love to do', I thought about it and decided to go to culinary school. I'm happy to make any and everything. I don't really have a favorite dish." (Tyrrani)
