SIEW LING SHIU, 29
Head pastry chef at Luxbite, VIC
“The most important thing that I’ve learnt along the way is how to respect all the ingredients. But learning is never-ending. I’ve always told myself to keep exploring and asking questions everywhere I go. I love pastry because, just like art, it can bring such joy to the person who eats it.”
SAEED SIDAOUI, 25
Director at Nuts About Life, VIC
“My family has been in the food industry since 1962. My grandfather was an industry pioneer, being one of the first people to introduce Middle Eastern food to Australia. My goal is for healthy eating to no longer be a luxury reserved for the rich; I want to enable all Australians to eat healthy, everyday.”
MEGAN SULLIVAN, 26
General manager at Hotel Centennial, NSW
“Like a lot of others, I hope to have an impact on the industry and change the perception of hospitality work from a transient, casual job, to a rewarding career. My aim is to mentor leaders along the way and impart knowledge to help them see their potential. I am a very driven and ambitious person and there are so many things I wish to achieve over the long career ahead of me.”
