Greetings!

Baking is my call, therefore I did whatever it took to get to where I am today. Previously working as a city bus driver, even though paid well along with great benefits and pension plan, the stress of the job was getting to me and my dream to own a bakery become more desirable. It took a lot of thought and consideration to take such a huge risk, but as I stand here today, the risk was well worth it.

After submitting my resignation, I packed up and moved to Niagara region for a brand new start. I attended Niagara College for a one year program in Baking & Pastry Arts, while at the same time operating a storefront. I've met up with some incredible people in Niagara region, but on top of the list are the staff at Spark Niagara. Words cannot express how grateful I am for their guidance, expertise and providing a space for me to sell my rum cakes.

Now I'm the proud owner of Monfriese Rum Cakes, an online gourmet bakery based in Ontario, Canada, I am now the Queen of my domain.

"My brand represents happiness, good times and straight up deliciousness"
