THE PURSUIT OF PERFECTION

Discovering sourdough blew my mind—making bread without yeast felt like magic and hooked me instantly.

I stumbled into baking while searching for purpose, trading acting and waiting tables for the transformative power of flour, water, and salt.

Sourdough taught me patience and wonder: watching a shapeless mass evolve into a beautiful loaf still amazes me.

Perfection in bread and pastries is unattainable, but the pursuit drives me—every small detail matters.

Quality is everything: if we can’t make it exceptional, we simply won’t make it.

I want every bite of bread or pastry to redefine what people think it can be.

Baking isn’t just a craft for me—it’s my passion, my purpose, and my life.
