I'm 19 and a culinary arts major at UAA. I have a 2 year old daughter. Asian with lots of vegetables, and baking pretty much anything. I love to get creative with food, and I think presentation counts. Christmas! Prime rib and Alaskan king crab legs!! I guess I've learned a lot on my own. I've been cooking for a long time, mostly to kill boredom when I was a kid. I used to be bad at cooking but now everything I make is really really good.
