Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
i love to hand someone a cup of coffee they want to both drink and just look at. When it all comes together, the sight, the smell, and finally the taste. presentation is key. Pleasing the customer is ultimately what we do, and if i can pleasantly surprise someone with a drink they haven't had or help one out of years of *bucks indoctrination i know i have done well.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
just about all of them.

Hi Travis. I had a couple of cups at your shop while I was at Matt's ABC school in May. I really enjoyed the shop.
I saw your photo, clicked on it, read your bio and wanted to say that I agree that serving something that satisfies more than one sense is the goal.
Your art is terrific in that photo. I'd love to know how you do it...You've got about 3 years on me as a barista, though so maybe I'll get there!

If ever you're up in Victoria let me know.
