YUM can be attributed to several pivotal factors, including my profound affection for children, devotion to parenthood, and considerable expertise as a child educator. I learned firsthand how crucial it is for the industry to have access to a nutritional catering company.

To promote the health and well-being of children, access to healthy food options and opportunities for early child development must be increased.

It is important to recognize that children's health is not solely their responsibility or that of their parents. Communities can play a crucial role in creating and maintaining environments that support healthy lifestyles.  

Passionate Culinary Expert with Over 15 Years of Experience

As a Buffalo, New York native, I have over a  decade of culinary experience gained from working in restaurants such as Olive Garden, Vizzi's, and Bravo! to name a few.  My focus on presentation and commitment to contributing to Yum's mission to provide healthier food options for children in our city is what drives my passion today for cooking.

It's an honor to contribute to our city by nourishing its most vital and precious resource - the children. As many of our future leaders may not have access to nutritious meals outside of the educational system, I consider it a privilege to play an integral role in their early childhood development.
