Autobiography

Welcome to my Signature blog! I am Joy, and I am a junior. My signature project this year is to emphasize that you can eat healthily under a budget by creating healthy, cheap and easy to make recipes. Volunteers and I will then cook the food with my recipes at Joseph’s House and serve the Troy community. My key product will be creating a cookbook that will be sent to food banks in Troy.

I've been always passionate about health and nutrition, as well as helping others in need. This signature project will be able to connect these two things.

Experiences in nutrition field-

In my sophomore year, I've participated in the Business Plan High School Competition in which my plan was related to nutrition. I am in the Bridges residential living program this year where we will be focussing a lot on healthy eating. I will also be participating the World Food Prize Institute in Iowa in October  where I am able to meet many influential people in food sciences and other related fields.

I am also passionate about helping others, volunteering, and doing community service. I've visited, raised money, done food/clothe drives for shelters in Troy and Albany several times.

As mentioned, this is a project that involved cooking and community service, hence I named my project - Cook for a Cause!
