About

My name is Tusheeway Henderson. I've been attending Atlantic Cape Community College since August 2012, right after I graduated high school. I was, and still am a young mother. While raising a newborn at the age of 18, I still managed to pass all my finals in high school and graduate on time with the rest of my class. Having a child did not stop me from seeing my goals. I went to college for Baking and Pastry because of my love for Art. Once I started the Culinary field, I just couldn't stop. As of today, June 8th, 2016, I am 22 years old raising a 4 year old while I graduated the college twice, and earned 2 degrees In Applied Science for both Baking and Pastry and Culinary Arts. Something about my passion just keeps me going. I am currently enrolled in the same college to get my degree in Food Service Management, and hopefully to transfer to Stockton College to obtain my Bachelor's degree.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I worked at many casinos but just couldn't find a job that kept my fully attention. I am doing what I love to do. I sell and bake specialty cakes from my home, I am a jewelry sales associate at Wal-Mart, and I am a pantry and pastry chef at Trump National Golf Course of Philadelphia.

Graduate school interests

I want to someday transfer to Stockton and get my bachelor's and masters some day.

Outside the classroom

Cooking, baking, playing tennis, playing piano and saxophone, writing short stories, and make new recipes.
