  • Amazing Podcast

    Being a guest on Worthy for Thirty was a real pleasure. In a crowded field of business shows, it distinguishes itself by digging deeper than the typical success narrative. Host Eric Tash probes the what and why behind each guest’s path. Founders naturally care about visible results, but Worthy for Thirty makes a deliberate point of spotlighting the ones who have built genuine impact into how their companies operate.

Q: How did you move from early kitchen curiosity to formal training and a career path, and what role did mentors play?

Q: Before the chef, before the musician and entrepreneur, what did food mean in your home growing up?
Growing up in the Bronx with exposure to a breadth of cultures and corner markets shaped food as a marker of time, memory, and belonging; cooking became a way to recreate comfort and connect with family while also fueling curiosity and creativity.
