00:00I think it really started with growing up with my family's love for eating well.
00:04I interned in a restaurant in New York, which really made me love the industry a lot.
00:08And lastly, I do travel regularly with my family, my mom specifically.
00:12And there's this one trip where we really researched
00:16on sort of like the signature regional dishes of Italy.
00:19And I really fell in love with trying to find the best version of each dish.
00:23And I think that's what really prompted me to make Amano,
00:26which is a fresh and faithful Italian restaurant.
00:28I thought of other paths, actually, rather than hospitality.
00:33But I think the pull of seeing happy faces from all the guests of my mom,
00:40of my uncles in all their restaurants sort of really pulled me in and made me
00:45want to consider that path as well, but doing it my own way.
