Truly honored and humbled to receive a Community Service Award from the Jamaican Association of Maryland, along with special citations from Governor Wes Moore, Mayor Brandon Scott and Senator Arthur Ellis 🇯🇲🙏🏾
There is so much I could say about this journey, but simply put...God and Time🙏🏽
No! I wasn't formally trained as a chef. Everything started in my mother's kitchen, where I learned that the best meals are made with love and heart ❤️
To my community, my supporters, my incredible employees, and my family THANK you. None of what we have built or accomplished happens without the people who have believed in the vision and stood alongside us over the years. And most importantly, my wife❤️ My partner in life, business, service, and everything in between. There is no me without her. Being able to stand beside her as we both received Community Service Awards made this recognition even more meaningful.
This award isn't a finish line. It's encouragement to continue serving, creating, mentoring, and making our communities proud.
