I am trying to improve my Math skills because as a restaurant owner I know I will need to manage my money well. • I believe if I can improve in Math, I will be a successful Chef because I understand what it takes to be a success.

  12. College Choice • I chose to attend South Seattle Community College because they have 3 training restaurants for me to learn in so that I can gain experiences in all types of restaurants. • I want to attend the Art Institute when I can transfer because they focus on the art of cooking and I will be close to a wider variety of restaurants in the Seattle area. • I hope this combination will help me be the most well rounded Chef I can be.

Best Works Reflection • The three traits that I feel I have developed the most over my high school career are: Creativity, Knowledge, and Effects of Effort. • As a student chef, I have learned how to make food look more attractive to a customer and how to improvise when things go wrong. • I have gained knowledge about the business world and how to work with others in a high pressure situation.

  14. Conclusion • I think the most significant experience I had in High School was my trip to Italy last summer. • I was able to experience a new culture. I realized that there is so much more for me to learn. • I am looking forward to developing my skills in Culinary Arts.
