Coming from a lower class family was rough. My parents never attended college or even finished high school, so the only jobs they qualified for were entry-level jobs. My parents barely had enough money to feed us, lunch and dinner were always the same. Whether it was coming back from the park or coming home from school I always came home to the aroma of tortillas and beans. My siblings and I grew tired of the familiar scents. I tried to help around and raise money to afford diverse foods by walking the neighbors golden retriever, with that money made I tried my first cheeseburger. Since that day my curiosity for food has grown as well as my goal of becoming a chef. With this scholarship I will help pay for culinary school and fulfill my dream of becoming a chef and so someday I can serve someone their first cheeseburger.
