Growing up in the Northwoods, has given me a mindset much bigger than the woods around us. The small town of Rhinelander is always a place that I can call home, and somewhere that I recognize like the back of my hand. Living in such a small town has opened my eyes to just how much each and every business, and person has kept this town a place I call home.
If I cannot change the entire world, I want to change the world around me and hopefully influence others with the simple message. Where I have found my ambitions to be headed is into starting my own business, a restaurant in specific. Not only is it what I want to do, it just feels right to do. Making amazing food easily accessible to my community, spark a smile, and filling bellies would change the world around us. My passion for cooking …show more content…

I could not be more excited for the culinary course that I am enrolled in at Nicolet College, and how much is offered for me to learn. I have never been given the opportunity to work in a professional kitchen, and the thought of having all of the space to work and create edible masterpieces is unbelievable! When we get down to the business management, there is an incredible amount of learning to do on my behalf. Going through the Business Operations program is everything that I will need to know to get a start on a business of my very own. Knowing little to nothing about running a business, I could not be any more ready to take on this course and all of it’s glory. I will apply great diligence and prioritize this portion of my schooling. Along with the learning and preparation that I will be doing in college, I was offered the opportunity to work with local chef, Tom Jordens at his new restaurant, CT’s Deli. I will be starting this spring in the kitchen, behind his instruction and working for him! Learning first hand from a brand new, successful business owner, and amazing

    Moving from a small sleepy mountain town in Northern Arizona to the bustling monstrous city of Las Vegas, Nevada fulfilled many of my goals in just a four hour drive. I am eighteen years old, it seems hardly reasonable to have an eighteen year old that has a hard time making the minuscule decision of what to have for dinner- make the decision of what to do for the rest of their life. I know the world is full of opportunities and I plan on taking advantage of as many as possible. Taking this class is an opportunity in itself. During my time in HMD 101 I hope to network with industry executives, deepen my passion for the hospitality and culinary industry, create positive relationships with my peers who are soon to be my colleagues, soak up every ounce of knowledge my professor and teaching assistants

    I believe in people. It is this belief that drives my courage and confidence in a world of cynicism and doubt. I know that ultimately, humans strive for belonging and community; thus, while loneliness and anger may always be in existence, so will togetherness and bliss. In this small nation of mine, people speak at least two languages and in addition to the English language, I have experienced the beauty of the Malay traditional tales, Chinese dragons, and Indian cuisines through years of golden rich and poor multiracial friends, stories, and cultural events, ranging from the Islamic Eid Al-Fitr to the graceful moves of Bollywood dances.

    My interest in a counseling related profession and helping others spawned as a result of a lifetime of learning and curiosity; namely, mindfully molding my thoughts, actions, and habits into a perpetual pattern of unconscious and unpremeditated altruistic behavior. Furthermore, I have always aspired to determine the roots of all my emotions and master the behaviors of a trustworthy, loyal, courteous, and kind individual. Every day should begin with the thought, “What can I, as an individual or collaboratively with others, accomplish to relieve part of the shared and total human suffering of this world?” If such a mantra was revered by the collective consciousness of the human race, misery and suffering would be sharply reduced, if not eliminated

    Throughout high school I took several classes like biology and chemistry and was a part of a club called HOSA (Health Occupational Students of America), which helped me move towards my goal.

Ever since my freshman year in high school I knew I wanted to become a pharmacist. I love the idea of being able to supply people with the medications they need and even doing research to find cures.
