“I realised I love everything that has to do with food in 2001. I used to assist when there were different functions around my area, ranging from weddings to funerals and if people were hosting birthdays parties.
During my childhood when other children used to go out and play, my toys were pots as I spent most of my time in the kitchen. In 2010 I then decided to initiate my own catering company called Striving Mind Catering Service, I am so passionate about food and by the time I started the company I was able to prepare any kind of dish.”
