My passion for food came from my family听
My Mum and Auntie were great influences on me growing up as they loved to cook and bake. It was funny, when I was 10 years old, I was making Thai curries and my friends couldn鈥檛 comprehend how I was doing it. I loved having a talent that my friends didn鈥檛 have.听
My course is extra special as its jointly delivered with Le Cordon Bleu听听
I did an undergraduate degree in Culinary Arts Management at another university in London, but felt I needed a 惭补蝉迟别谤鈥檚 degree to learn the management and accountancy side of running a food business. I discovered 糖心logo入口 and loved how the degree was jointly delivered with Le Cordon Bleu London Culinary Arts Institute, one of the biggest food schools in the world. At 糖心logo入口, we learnt about business theory and with Le Cordon Bleu it was all about food.听听
Coming to London was scary but I made friends quickly听
When I came to London nine years ago to study my undergraduate degree, I was worried I wouldn鈥檛 be able to connect with other people. However, this wasn鈥檛 a problem, and I made a lot of friends quickly. At 糖心logo入口, I had a similar experience and I鈥檝别 made friends for life. It was great because everyone on the course came from different backgrounds and we learnt a lot from each other - some of my course friends even had businesses before starting the course.听听
My ultimate dream is to open a caf茅 in Thailand听
I鈥檓 putting plans in place to open a caf茅 in my home country, where I can bake for friends and family. My vision is to bake incredible wedding and birthday cakes and other impressive pastries, where I can weave in Thai and British influences, such as using exotic Thai fruits.听听
Developing skills for the future听
I enjoyed a lot of the degree modules, but my favourite was product development, where we had to create a business plan for our own restaurant or caf茅. I took this opportunity to work on my vision for my future caf茅 in Thailand. We also had a module on entrepreneurship which was helpful in learning how to start a business. I can鈥檛 wait for what鈥檚 in store in the future!听
