If you could be any dessert, what would you be?
If I were a dessert I would be pecan pie!
What's your favorite dessert and/or cake?
My favorite cake is red velvet with cream cheese icing. I was raised on it and I just can't live without it!
What's your favorite non-dessert food?
I love Indian food and Thai Food?
What are your favorite pastime/hobbies when not baking?
I am all about being a good Dad. When I am not baking and designing, I am skating, wakeboarding and teaching my kids how to get the most out of life.
Why did you sign up for the show?
I signed up for the show because I wanted to be seen and inspire others to chase their dreams.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
I have known that I would be an artist my entire life. Everything I do revolves around being wildly creative. I'm not sure I would still be around today if I was not able to express myself in my work.
Why do you think you should be the Next Great Baker?
I should be the Next Great Baker because I am original and real. My work is insanely detailed and you just do not see other designers doing what I am doing.
