To be included in this year's #familyreunion has been an immeasurable blessing. To be surrounded by so many different portrayals of greatness that look like me has been a dream. Standing next to Iconic Chef and personality @carlaphall , one of the @mcbridesisters , the largest black owned wine company in the United States, and @cheferickwilliams , the first black chef to win JBF great lakes and my mentor for the past 12 years. Gratitude doesn't began to articulate what I'm experiencing. Went in with friends and left with family.
