About Me:: 35 married, two kids. Love travel, good wine, good food and awesome coffee
About My Company:: I founded Coffee Aroma three years ago with the aim as every coffee bar startup has of growing to hundreds of shops all over the world. Very quickly realised it wasn't quite as simple as it looked. Decided in year one and two to have the goal of simply not going bust. Now in year three and thinking about expanding again although not in the UK, it will be a country where people actually appreciate coffee.
In short I think Coffee Aroma is pretty close to my original dream, we are a coffee bar that tries to do things right, without compromise.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?: I get to play with coffee toys and drink great coffee every day. Is there more to life?
