About Me:
I have the espresso cafe and/food business and have a lot of experience in it. I have been a purchaser/buyer, consultant, trainer, and marketer for several types of business. I also set up a purchasing group in Austin, Texas so members could buy product and get repairs at discount prices. I have worked in wholesale businesses as well as retail so I understand what is needed for both to succeed.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
