Student Spotlight
Nae Leday's childhood didn't provide the opportunity to dream, it was about survival: fostercare, teenage pregnancy, and sex trafficking. Nae enrolled at Kitchens for Good, seeing a chance to flourish despite her past, and pursue her passion for cooking. Since graduating in January 2019, Nae remains employed at Whiphand Brasserie, and now promoted to Sous Chef. Nae recently bought her first car--with pride, each morning, she drives her son to school. Today, Nae is not defined by her past, but instead by her bright future.
