Alexis Hernandez grew up around Latino flavors and from an early age gained a lasting love affair with food. In his early 20s he began learning the basics of cooking and food science. He discovered a passion about the science of food and understanding the compositional characteristics of ingredients and how they interact with each other and what happens when heat is applied to them in the kitchen. He followed his dream and attended cooking school to fully understand the simple science of cooking. Two years after graduating from school, Alexis beat out thousands of hopefuls and became a finalist on the hit show, The Next Food Network Star, Season 6. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, host Jeff Copper interviews Alexis who was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD later in life. Alexis shares the impact ADD has had on his life, and they both celebrate his success and what has gone right for him.
