Biography and Expertise

Growing up with a bakery in the family for many years, I found myself at a young age working with my father in the business and developing my passion for baking desserts and bread but mostly decorating elaborate cakes of all types. Over the years I learned so much from my father who won numerous awards for his creations. I also followed in his footsteps enjoying the creativity aspect of the business. I purchased the business from him and expanded into wholesaling and opening a second retail location. I had a talented and loyal staff that I credit also to my success. After owing the business for over 20 years, I decided to pursue a different path in my career. I became employed by JWU where I could share all my expertise and knowledge with the younger generation pursuing a career in the teaching industry. I enjoy seeing all the talent and creativity that the students at JWU have to offer along with sharing my many years of experience with them.
