About Me:

Born and raised in Seattle. I got into the business in my early 20's because I drank so much coffee I decided to get a job as a barista. Little did I know that it would become a career. I have been married for 11 years and half of our family lives in New Zealand where I hope to one day take my coffee skills. I like to make kickin coffee! My latte art is pretty good! :)

About My Company:

Quality is number one followed by a great experience. We have a great staff and all of us are always striving for excellence!
