Milestones
My road in life has been direct.
Says that the years spent in school, and the years afterwards, you focus should just be on trying different things and learning.
He went to law school and got his law degree, but he wasn't really sure what being a lawyer would be like.
When he joined a law firm after school, he realized that he'd made a mistake; he hated his work.
Around that time, he started baking on the side as a hobby.
Took a trip in 1999 and brought a cake with him; he didn't have a case for it, so he took it through the airport on a plate covered in plastic wrap.
At each stage of his trip, people around him would react to the cake; he realized there was something special about baking, something he needed to explore.
This time, he did his research; he made absolutely sure that he wanted to open a bakery before he took that step.
In 2000, he officially left the law practice to open his bakery, CakeLove; today, he's written three cookbooks and hosts a show on Food Network.
