Introductions

LONG BEFORE I ARRIVED ON THE DREAM CAKES SCENE IN 2014, I LEARNED MY WAY AROUND THE KITCHEN WITH MY GREAT-GRANDMA. AT FOUR YEARS OLD, SHE TAUGHT ME TO BAKE AND, UNBEKNOWNST TO ME AT THE TIME, BEGAN LAYING THE GROUNDWORK FOR MY FUTURE.

ORIGINALLY FROM RENO, NV. I GRADUATED FROM OREGON CULINARY INSTITUTE IN 2008, PROCEEDED TO HONE MY CRAFT IN SEVERAL RESTAURANTS AROUND PORTLAND AND BEGAN MY LOVE FOR MAKING CAKES. I BOUGHT DREAM CAKES IN 2014 AND STARTED LEAVING MY IMPRINT ON FOOD, PERFECTING THE BALANCE BETWEEN ART AND FLAVOR.

WHEN IT COMES TO CAKE, I BELIEVE WHAT'S ON THE INSIDE IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS WHAT'S ON THE OUTSIDE.

THAT SAID, I'M NOT ONLY AN EXPERIENCED BAKER BUT A PASSIONATE ONE. BECAUSE I KNOW CAKE MAKES PEOPLE HAPPY. AND I LOVE PASSING ON THAT SWEET JOY TO YOU. FACT: IF MY CAKES MAKE EVEN ONE PERSON HAPPY, THEN THEY’RE NOT JUST CAKES. THEY’RE THE BYPRODUCT OF TRYING TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE.

this was my great grandmas mixing bowl, a forever favorite.
