I feel so honoured and grateful to be the recipient of this scholarship, especially during these unprecedented times.
From my heart to yours, thank you!
I believe everyone deserves to be nourished and eat well, and I would like to be a leader in the industry to follow my passions and create amazing food that everyone can access.
Simply put, I want to work in the culinary industry because I love food! I love making food, eating food, researching about food, hearing about peoples’ food, buying food, and being around food! It’s a passion I want to embrace and cultivate.
Ever since I was a child, my memories have always either been at the dining room table, eating and laughing and enjoying the breaking of bread or in the kitchen watching my Mom and grandmas work.
Thank you for this amazing support and recognition I feel honoured and I am very grateful!

I am thrilled to be selected for this scholarship, as it will go a long way in helping me continue to pursue my career as a chef. I am very grateful for the BCHF and CTS for this recognition and for the continued support they provide those in the industry.
Probably one of the top reasons why I want to be part of this industry is actually a bringing people together with (my) food. For me, there is nothing more heart-warming than making memories amongst one another with some sort of food present.
I love to learn about different cultures, and food is one of the best ways to do it. With this I mean everything what include food since how the ingredients grow up until how the people consume them in any meal.
Because Canada is a multicultural country, Canadian can enjoy food from all over de world and that makes me excited about studying culinarian arts here.
A path into cooking is a very good idea because we always look for food, we always explore the taste, the flavor, and we always love to eat. I am a passionate cook. I like learning new types of dishes.

This is not just a career for me, but I treat it as an ongoing journey and with your help we can make a difference by sharing all the learnings acquired and putting it to action by way of food.
Since starting my training and friendship with my Cafeteria Class Instructor Chef John Ludtke in 2017, my sight, smell and taste were opened up to the world of cooking and how to work individually and as member of a team.

It’s really important for me to feel connected to nature, and in the midst of Vancouver’s hustle and bustle, I find it imperative for others to do the same. We are incredibly privileged to live on Unceded Coast Salish Territory. In that, there is a closeness to our land and the Indigenous Peoples that I hope all West Coast
residents share. I want my food to connect us to that, on an intimate and profound level.
Thank you to our sponsors
