Pineapple Sessions Podcast Season 2 Episode 1: Madison College Culinary Arts student Kevin Apolinario

Published: Oct. 14, 2019, 3 p.m.

Try NOT to get emotional when Kevin talks about his amazing mother...or the gratitude and humility he has for this world in part due to his experiences...or how he talks about the beauty of food and how we can all do little things to not be wasteful!

I didn’t think I could be more fond of Kevin Apolinario until I sat with him and he told me his story. You are going to love this opening podcast for Season 2 of Pineapple Sessions.

From a kid who wouldn’t talk to people other than his team in gaming (Kevin was making money playing World of Warcraft at home in Louisiana) to taking a leap of faith and moving to Madison where he stumbled upon welding, to getting a part time job exposing him to food which led him to Madison College’s Culinary Arts program and working with Madison Chefs likes Dave Heide and Dan Fox, Kevin has such an incredible story of learning, growing and being humble along the way.

You don’t want to miss this student story. Enjoy!
