As an Electrical Engineer, I wield the power of electrons and circuits, but my true spark ignites in the kitchen. Cooking isn’t just about flavors and recipes—it’s a captivating dance of molecules, a symphony of heat and chemistry. Each sizzle, each caramelization, whispers secrets of Maillard reactions and various protein combinations. I’m on a mission to share my passion with middle school students and teach them that cooking and food IS science! And a fun, delicious kind of science.
