About Me:
My beloved grandpa would be so happy to see all i'm doing and learning right now... The thing is i've been around coffee my whole life, but never really got to understand all the complexity and the incredible things those little beans mean. Now i get why i was meant to get here.
I work with the Salvadoran Coffee Council, at the marketing and communications department: our job and mission is to help promote El Salvador Coffee's culture so we can get back on track, to the place we deserve.
I am also in charge of coordinating El Salvador's Cup of Excellence...!
About My Company:

What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
the people...the ones we work for and the ones we work with to help the first ones :)

I am going to be visiting El Salvador this next year (and Guatemala) and was wondering if you could direct me to some coffee farms that I should check out while there. I am interested in cupping at mutliple farms and trying microlots that I might be interested in importing.
