Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

I am currently managing Wild Joe's Coffee located in Bozeman, Montana. It's a popular spot for locals and easy access for tourists visiting Yellowstone park or the many ski mountains in the area. We provide quality and conscientious coffee from a local roaster. We are the first to introduced pour over coffee in our community; using the hario v60, Chemex with coava filter, and siphon. Our mission is to educate our community so there may be a demand and appreciation for it in the future. I have also managed a high-volume coffee shop in the "Gateway to the Grand Canyon" I have worked in coffee shops throughout my travels of the U.S. I had built and operated a non-profit coffee shop that helped fund a community garden/urban eco-village. I have gained enough knowledge of the coffee industry to be intrigued enough to learn more as well as build a foundation for future endeavors.
