Um, you know, and so but once everything kind of went, what changed for me was not that I've never been supported, but like the support for the culture, uh, like all the DMs of just like, "I can't believe you, you did this with this cuisine." And like, I had so many people reach out to me from different cultures, like from Venezuela, like, "I can't believe you made a cachapa.

Never thought I'd see that on a competition." Like, "Can't believe you did pone for the finale." Like, "Can't believe, can't believe you did pepper pot." Like, just so many cultures, and it was really great to kind of see everyone kind of come together and say like, "Thank you for representing me." And like, no, like there isn't just like a bunch of agents and like managers and people lining up and like throwing deals at you and stuff.

Like, you know, it, it starts off with this like, "Hey, can you make an appearance?" Like, "Hey, can you come?" Like, you know, other chefs being like, "Let's do like a dinner together," which is honestly the funnest part.

Like, you know, it's just like cooking with your friends that you were cooking against the entire time, cooking with chefs that you've always wanted to be around, uh, cooking with past season people and like, you know, bringing those worlds together.

But like, yeah, I don't know if people think that like as soon as like episode one or episode 14 airs that like all of a sudden you're like a demigod in like the culinary scene.

Like, you know-

What is your take on that?
