Allie Stefan is a first-year student at the University of Michigan majoring in movement science. Her love for food stemmed from her family dinners at her home in Grosse Ile, Michigan. She grew up watching her mom cook countless amounts of dishes, desserts, and dinners, which only fueled her hopes to craft food as lovely as her mom's when she was older. By pursuing a future career in medicine, Allie hopes to exhibit the same kindness and warm-hearted spirit that her mom expressed to her family when fabricating life-long memories all wrapped into her family dinners.
