Syerra Donaldson, a former social work student, turned her cooking hobby into a thriving catering business, EasyCookinWithSy, during the pandemic. With newfound free time, Donaldson began cooking extensively and sharing her dishes online, quickly gaining traction. Now, at 30, she has achieved recognition through competitions, including placing third in Carla Hall's Favorite Chef contest. Despite her initial hesitation, Donaldson emphasizes personal growth in her culinary journey, reflecting on how the competitive environment boosted her confidence and skill.
"The competition was just there to teach me personal development. In the beginning I wasn't scared, but I was timid. Now my confidence is higher."
"I'm getting bothered because I'm the type of person who can't sit down for too long. The only thing that was open was Walmart."
