After her parents' divorce Daniela dealt with stress and struggled to feel heard at home. Seeking an outlet, she started working as a barista, where she felt a sense of community and appreciation for the first time. The kitchen changed from an escape to a potential career for Daniela. She shared and explored this passion for creativity with her sister, a professional cook. Resolved to become a professional chef, Daniela applied to Sprouts. With the mentorship of Chef Richard Lee and his team at Saison, Daniela has the chance to find her voice as she masters the culinary arts. We're thrilled for her to feel the support of a kitchen family as she pursues her career dreams.
