I've been around the coffee community for years, but haven't completely embraced it until working at Ritual Coffee Roasters in SF. After a move to the East Coast and a gig at Gimme! Coffee in NY, I sank my teeth into the whole coffee professional experience. Now, I'm back in the Bay Area; loving my time at Sightglass. Hoping to inspire future coffee professionals.

I love traveling and am open to any/ all opportunities to meet others in the coffee community.
