He Michelle - did you check out the song on my baristaexchange page? That's my son Dan - he goes under the stage name Daniel Lee kendall. I've got that cd for you with some of his other old songs on it. Where do you want me to send it to? I look forward to seeing you in Minni.....

Michelle, it was great to meet you in St Louis. All of you made me feel quite welcome. I wish I could have arrived in time to compete. What a great venue! D.C. was also a blast. You put together a great time.

If you get near VA Beach Va come by. www.phoebuscoffee.com

Michelle,

Sorry to sound like a broken record, but I sent you an email last Monday and still haven't heard back from you. Did you get my email? How do competitors know when/if they are scheduled?

Thanks for all your hard (busy) work. -J.

Once again you rocked out another USBC! Man it gets better each year. I can't imagine the hard work you put in day in and day out. When do you get a trophy for the hardest working woman in the coffee industry? I guess the Michelle button is a start. Such a beautiful smile! Can I get more Michelle time at the Southeast this year?

Total epiphany: I was telling a friend about my experience working with you at WRBC, how it felt kind of Director-Stage Manager, and of course she tells me about what you did before coffee--amazing!

Hi Michelle,

Frank from Kaldi's in St. Louis. Tricia just let me know about us hosting again in 2009, I very excited to judge again. Along those lines, i was wondering if you know when and where the NERBC is going to be in 2009. I have family that living in New York City and would love to go up there and judge and see them. Just checking.

Michelle... I'll miss your smiling face, even on my infrequent visits to the Long Beach offices. While I'm not close to the WBC activities, I can certainly see that your contribution to SCAA and in a greater sense to specialty coffee is very well appreciated. Best of luck in whatever you choose to do.

Hey Michelle I only just heard that you are moving on. The work you have done to convert what was a very amateurish event into a world wide professional series of championships is phenomonal. It is your efforts and dedication that have directly transformed barista championships for the better forever! You will always have my sincere admiration for your inimitable professional skills. Keep in touch!

Michelle,
On behalf of Sammy I and we want to thank you for everything you’ve done for the barista community, competitions, the Specialty Coffee Industry and for us personally…
You are one of the most professional, thoughtful and hard working people I have ever met. You strive to put your integrity first and have always supported the best interests of the baristas.
Barista Competitions are not going to be the same without your influence… but we wish you all the happiness you deserve!!
