Jon Kung didn't set out to pursue a career in social media--initially the pair didn't plan to pursue a career in food. The foodie and content creator was a theater student and studied creative writing while in undergrad before pursuing law school.

"It was ultimately about the person I thought I was," they say. "I was in a crossroads, between a career in law and one in culinary and even though I was inclined to take the 'safe' path, the attraction of service in food and the joy I had in doing my job was just too strong to not acknowledge."

When pandemic-related restrictions forced them to take their culinary talents onto social media platforms, Jon won millions of followers with their educational cooking content and big personality. Learn more about Jon's experience and his community have led to their success and how they've evolved as a creator since capturing an international fan base.
