Emily Rowe Scholar of the Day
An Inspiring Chef With The Ingredient of Determination
Becoming The Main Ingredient
As a high school senior, Emily remembers her performances in the Wizard of Oz, Lion King and Beauty and the Beast as one of the most memorable times; she remembers her amazing support team, her teachers, nursing staff, therapists, and most importantly her right hand, Mrs. Jones, being by her side everyday, since the first day of high school until the last. Looking back at the seeds planted from one of the most award-winning hospitality programs, she is prepared to pursue her certification as a ServSafe Manager, enabling her to complete the Pastry Chef program at Sunflower Bakery another chapter in her story.
Emily has been a L.E.E.P To College Foundation Scholar for over four years and has served as Service Learning Team Leader for teams serving at Food and Friends (helping to prepare and deliver food to those in the community with chronic illnesses), Ronald McDonald House (preparing meals for families who support their children with chronic illness in need of long term care), and has been faithful in supporting her mother, founder and executive director of L.E.E.P To College Foundation, attending every monthly leadership session since 2013.
Emily will connect her spirit of service, hospitality, and training to becoming an entrepreneur! Emily will one day open her very own cafe' A-PEEL, connecting her passion and love of service to food an ingredient needed to empower a community!
We celebrate you Emily as our right now leader!
