“My whole life has been a mix of great cuisines. Fusion was something I learned early on by having traditional Puerto Rican and Japanese food in my home, and then every once in a while there would be a creation involving the two with each other or other cuisines. It is that creativity that has driven me to see ingredients & foods differently, but also have a desire to cook traditionally.”
