I left my 6-figure corporate banking job, and now, I'm a food influencer. I support my family by doing what I love.

I began my career in corporate banking in 2011 and stayed until 2019. Although I was making six figures and had spent eight years of my life in the profession, I decided to quit because I wanted a career where I could do my own thing and not have to take orders anymore.
