Summary

On today's episode, Dennis sits down with Detective and Professional Chef, Alexandra Donnadio.

Alexandra Donnadio grew up my four younger brothers that could not pronounce her name, hence the nickname "Zandge". She is currently a Detective in the Ballistics unit, and a self-taught Chef.

Growing up Alexandra wanted a job that involved truly being able to help people, and going into law enforcement was how she believed she could do that. Zandge always loved to cook, but it wasn't until recently that she started to take it more seriously and post content on social media. She realized that cooking isn't just about the food: it's about how happy cooking for others makes her feel, but at the same time if she needs a day to herself she can experiment with a new recipe, and shut the rest of the world out. Her mission is to continue to share her passion of food with the world. Alexandra continues to show that it is okay to have a passion outside of law enforcement.

Today, Dennis and Alexandra discuss how she found her passion for cooking, the behind the scenes of her social media pages, how to grow a business and why its important to find a passion outside of law enforcement.
