Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
I worked in Mocha Joe's Cafe for 4 years as a barista and when the opportunity arose for me to work at the Roasting Shop I immediately jumped on it. I have been roasting for over a year now. I love coffee and the daily lessons and challenges that come with being a coffee roaster. I am also a dedicated wanderer and traveler and coffee is an excellent recourse and direction.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
All of them! I would like to visit or re-visit every country or city, except for Naples. I would not like to go to Naples ever again.
