I remember watching Graham Kerr on television when I was a kid and wanting to be a chef. After high school I started working in a kitchen for a couple of years. But then I joined the Navy got married went to school. Now I'm a stay at home dad, so I started cooking again. I will be representing for the Washington State Chili Cookoff.
