I was in college school, I applied for Disney's um culinary internship because I just love going to Disney World. I'm not a Disney adult. I just I'm someone that loves Disney, okay? Like you know what that like as I said with a Marvel tattoo on me. Um but so yeah, I just love Disney and I love how like Disney makes like magic for people and that's what I wanted to do. And yeah, I applied, I got in and that was the whole so I like I went to go live with my parents that summer because I was supposed to go to Disney. That was the whole plan. I had house and I had everything ready. I was supposed to leave for Disney. I was supposed to go to Florida in two weeks. And randomly one day I got this email and I'm still making content. It's like, hey, like next level chef opportunity and Golden Ramsey and and at the time I hadn't heard next level chef because it was only season two and it just hadn't been promoted that much and I I looked up the show. I'm like, this is so hard. And I didn't even think it was real either the email. Um and then my parents did deep dive, they like search up the email, they search up the company, search up the casting agency and it was real. And we responded the next day did a casting tape and within like two days they call me. They're like, "Oh yeah, we really loved you and we have to fly you out to like if you if we choose you, you're going to have to fly out to London like next week." And so I'm like, "Okay, don't have my passport. My passport like just expired." And so they call me two days later. I didn't hear anything. So I'm like, "Okay, I don't know." And they're like, "Okay, so what's a good airport that you want to fly out of?" I was like, "Wait, did I get cast? Do I get? So then I just like hurry up and get a passport. I had to call my Congress. So if you if you don't want to get your passport, if you need to get it expedited, call your Congress and tell them what you need. And yeah, I got it the next day and I flew out and everything happened so fast. like I took a really big risk, but it's like a risk that like it really paid off.
