What did you do in college to set you up for success in your career?
I studied very hard, and if I had a question, I always asked. If there was a topic or subject that I didn't understand, I would go back to it and ask my teachers.
Also, I practiced a lot by myself at home. When I got a lesson in culinary school, I would come home and practice it over and over until I mastered it. So, I would say practice, practice, and practice in college during school is very important.
