About Me:
I started out working in the coffee industry in Melbourne, in 2004, working for a couple of years for a couple of roasters, where I dealt with all facets of the business, from making coffee, to roasting, to selling. Then I moved to Brisbane and became one of the main baristas at a very busy delicatessen. From there I found myself go to Europe, where I worked with a Cheese company helping them to create a coffee line. Having returned to Australia, and gone down different roads, I returned to my first love, that is coffee.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
The coffee, and the machines that produce it well.
