1. Why did you decide to start writing cookbooks?
In the early 2000s when was cooking at Union Pacific I realized I had a unique point of view and a very personal style of cooking. That’s when I decided to write about it.
2. What inspired your current cookbook?
Keto has always been my go to diet for rough patches. Any time I get off track even a little bit, I use the keto method to lose weight quickly.
3. What’s next for you?
I’m already working on my next book, a new restaurant concept and I’m going to attempt a triathlon again soon after a multi-year break.
