Pick out information about: Flynn’s personal life His achievements the role played by social media



He's the 17-year-old culinary wunderkind who stepped into the kitchen aged 10 and never looked back. Flynn McGarry has cooked at the White House, been on the cover of The New York Times Magazine and worked side-by-side with the world's top chefs, and now the "Justin Bieber of food" is headed to MasterChef Australia. At only 17 years old you've been named amongst Time Magazine's '25 Most Influential Teens' two years in a row- how do you balance that success with a typical teenage life? Unfortunately and not unfortunately, you can't really bai- ance those things while doing what I do. I have focused really intensely on food and haven't had much of a balance between my professional and personal lives. I'm kind of con sumed by my job but i love it so much that it doesn't really feel like I'm missing out on anything You jumped in the kitchen when you were 10 years old. What got you excited about cooking at such a young age? I kind of got into food in a non-serious way at first. I became interested because my mom wasn't the greatest cook [laughs].She took me to buy a cook book and, being 10 years old, I picked out the one that was wrapped in plastic on the top shelf. At that time I just thought food was stuff to fill you up but that book showed that it was an art form, a refined skill. Ever since then I've been hooked. How important are the Internet, social media and YouTube to you and your career? Very important! mean, it's a way to learn. I have learnt a lot of cooking techniques just by watching YouTube videos It's also important for me to show my followers what I'm doing. It's really cool for people to see my food as opposed to just reading about it fin a recipe] With such a strong following on social media, do you have any advice for other young people looking to get into cooking or the culinary world? It's not an easy world. Loving cooking and food is obviously the first thing you have to have, but you need to understand that it's going to be very difficult. Being really young makes it even harder. People will dismiss you just because of your age so you have to work that much harder. Like anything, it's about determination but at the same time, enjoy it because if you don't then the realy long hours and the really stressful hot kitchens will just become miserable
