![]() ![]() ![]() So I was trying to figure out a way to combine the two things I love - food and fitness - which is where the “Cheat Day” concept came from. I’m a personal trainer, but I just love food. How hard is it to narrow down one style of cooking? You started with the concept of Cheat Day, then gave that up and focused more on healthy eating and Caribbean flavors. Your point of view changed quite a bit over the season. Once I moved to Houston, I was sitting there watching Food Network and the teaser came on, “If you think you have what it takes…” I looked at my girlfriend and said, “I think I can do that.” And she said, “Then do it!” So I went to the auditions in Austin, TX, and the rest is history. It made me realize I liked doing TV, but I didn’t think I was built for the stress of doing reality TV again. A couple of years ago, though, I did MasterChef - I went on as a prank. ![]() I watched Food Network Star from way back in the day - from Guy Fieri all the way through Aarti, Jeff Mauro and Damaris - but I never thought I’d do anything like that. I’m a personal trainer and have a gym as well - it would’ve been hard to go out every day with a food truck, too. We specialized in doing events - big barbecue grilling on people’s porches - as opposed to a traditional food truck you see on the streets. I started to cater events in people’s homes and ended up getting a food truck, Caribbean Grill. You owned and operated a food truck before your stint on Food Network Star. ![]()
