I love to travel and do it as much as my schedule allows. I've traveled all over the U.S. and Europe. I especially enjoy England and France, but would also like to visit Japan and Greece sometime soon.
About Me:
Moved to Connecticut for college and loved it so much, I stayed. A friend of mine was selling his shop to move to England, so I bought it. I really enjoy the variety of my job and all the great regular customers.
About My Company:
In addition to coffee, we also offer a lunch menu 7-days a week, including lots of baked treats. We make and bake all the pastries, cookie bars, specialty breads, and pies at our shop, so we get a lot of to-go orders. Local authors and solo musicians spice up the shop on the weekends during the summer
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
The coffee industry has some of the most interesting people working in it and I’ve made some wonderful friends thanks to my shop.
