"When I was asked to be part of Starry Night, I immediately said yes. I believe every child deserves the opportunity to be a kid, to feel supported, and to have the tools needed to build a successful future. As a chef, food has given me purpose, mentorship, and opportunities throughout my life. Being able to share my craft while helping create those same opportunities for children is truly an honor, and I'm grateful to be part of such an incredible cause."
