About Me:
I am currently Vice President of Operations for Paradise Roasters. I am mostly interested in the social and economic issues surrounding coffee, or any other product for that matter. My background is in Computer Science, so working with Paradise has kept me involved heavily with web usability and search engine optimization. It also lends itself to developing technical processes. I'm interested in talking with anyone who wishes to develop a new brewing method that would be an open architecture - patented, but available for everyone's use... never to be sold to a proprietary holder (not that I'm pointing fingers :p). Heated coffee press anyone?
About My Company:
Paradise Roasters is a premier coffee roaster based out of Ramsey, MN. We have numerous industry accolades, including mentions in Coffee Review, Food & Wine Magazine, National Geographic, and several others.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
Aaron, I thought about driving over to St.Louis last night so I could be there for the finials! Oh, well.....
I don't think I am going to make it to the Great Lakes either. I don't like this part of being a business owner! I am missing all the fun stuff!
Hey Aaron. Thanks for taping us this weekend. I can't wait to see the final product. It was awesome of you to help us out like that. We'll see you in Minneapolis. It was a fun weekend.
Aaron,
Got your invite, thanks
Are you going to be able to make to our Barista Jam on Thursday April 17th with Miguel?
Hope to meet with you then!
