Married. Have a Dobbie named Sedona, cat named Toby. Love to play golf, hike and explore new restaraunts. "Light My Fire" by the Doors is in my top 3 favorite songs. Love to be creative in our yard. 15 years experience in the Temporary Help business, 15 years at retail coffee. I also sale/represent a very quality granola cereal product to commercial accounts. Got a great sense of humor and am a good listener.

About My Company:

We are very focused on customer satisfaction...we listen for "this is the best" from customers as this gives us a measure on how we are doing. We employ 4-5 well trained Baristas....pouring 24sec. shots and steaming milk "thick". We do not offer internet (thank god) and surprisingly people have appreciated our being authentic. We serve 150-200 people per day. We offer panini sans/bakery items and gelato during the summer.
