About Me:
I am a musician, artist and specialty coffee lover. I love pulling beautiful espresso and pouring latte art. I moved to Seattle about 6 years ago and have pretty much been involved with coffee since i got the chance! I started as a barista/roaster at Whole Foods Market, which turned into working for Verite Coffee and being introduced to Stumptown Coffee Roasters. I have been working with Stumptown coffee ever since and love every aspect of it. I am on a mission right now to try as many different coffee roasters as possible. You can never try too many! I love training people how to make espresso and have done some training work with Fare Start, showing transitional housing youths how to make coffee. Right now I work mainly for a small french bakery in ballard pulling lighthouse coffee. I competed in the Latte Art Championships at the Seattle Coffee Fest in September 20008. It was so amazing and I hope to compete again. But for now I just want to make art, play my guitar and drink amazing coffee. oh, and snuggle with my cat Simon.
