"My Mum and I brought up over a hundred foster children together, and that shaped my life. I grew to love cooking, so I became a pastry chef and baker. But the greatest gift those kids gave me was their stories, which I keep to myself. It’s really powerful when people know that they can trust and confide in you. I don’t judge, I don’t tell, and I try to help."
