Hello, My name is Riina Sinkko and I am a 23 year old pastry chef and baker student at Omnia vocational school in Espoo, Finland. I’ve been interested in food as long as I can remember and cooking and baking have always played a big role in my family’s daily life. I have been working at the restaurant field since 2012 gaining knowledge and working experience first as a café employee and a barista and later as a baker and pastry chef. During these years I realized that I want to be a professional pastry chef and turn my passion into a career. I enjoy baking because it offers endless opportunities for using imagination and I often find myself trying out and developing new techniques at my free time. For me baking is about bringing joy and happiness to people through delicious and beautiful treats. I am a positive and open minded person with a lot of determination and passion. As a social person I enjoy learning new perspectives from people around me.
