Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
I own the Alley Cat Cafe in Quincy, CA in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. It's a sweet little town of about 5000. We also serve pastries, lunch, wine and beer and appetizers. I am usually on bar most of the day.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
umm, I'm a stay at home freak. I love the mountains and don't come out much. If I could I might travel to Africa to meet the farmers that grow my coffee, so I could thank them for their hard work and tell them how much I appreciate their wonderful coffee every morning.
About Me:
I'm 52, I have two great teenagers, they both work in the cafe, my daughter is a barista, a darn good one. I'm on bar most of the time we are open. I love it when we get busy and I can talk while pulling shots.
About My Company:
Alley Cat Cafe, it's a cool place.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
The people and pulling shots
