It all started with my passion for cooking when I was a little girl. I have enjoyed cooking and baking for my family since I was 8 years old. I began my working career as a secretary and an office manager in Hong Kong. However, I always had my mind on cooking -- cooking for my husband, cooking for my family. I began taking cooking classes in the evening. Before I moved to the United States to reunite with my parents, I made the decision to go back to college to purse my lifelong dream in culinary arts. In addition to my studies in Switzerland, I trained professionally at the world famous Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, where I received a diploma specializing in French Cuisine and Pastries.
