I am a coffee fanatic. I love making coffee almost as much as I enjoy drinking it.

It was a pleasure to have some bella vita pulled by the Big Daddy in Chicago. We kept finding ourselves gravitating to your booth everyday for the red head. Best wishes for all your hard work to pay off in Portland.
