Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

Our coffeehouse is in a renovated old house, downtown. We a have a few rooms with couches and bistro tables, and a covered patio. We're known for our comfortable, community atmosphere.

What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?

I'd like to be able to travel again, for starters... Which would include Europe, the tropics, and wherever else throwing a dart at a map may lead me...

About Me:

I love running this business, but feel like a reluctant businessman. The word doesn't even fit.
I'm a college graduate, a published writer, and my favorite part of the business is being its spokesperson; managing our image, which includes food, service, atmosphere and the experience.

About My Company:

We are a one-location independent coffeehouse, serving locally roasted, organic, fairly-traded coffee & espresso. We have a tremendous, loyal, local following, and do quite well with travelers, also, many of whom are repeat visitors.

What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?

The recognition and appreciation we receive from the community; knowing that we have impacted a community in a positive way.
