About Me:

My personal motivation and personal phylosophy is best described as: assisting others to realize a purpose and through that purpose live winning lives. My experience includes developing and opening another drive-through espresso venture, Joanne's Java Hut, in cooperation with my sister. This store is also well on its way to future growth. I have solid knowledge of coffee at all stages: from green bean to finished product. I strive to share this knowledge with my customers to further enhance their experience and expand their knowledge of gourmet coffee beverages.

About My Company:

C&D Gourmet Coffee Company's goal is to carry on the tradition of great coffee houses with a unique style and ambiance. The concept is home town friendly. We offer a variety of espresso-style beverages as well as fresh brewed coffee, blended beverages, selected pastries, and light lunches. All of our beverages are created individually never from a pre-mixed package. When possible (while in season) we use fresh locally grown fruits and berries in our blended and smoothie beverages. Locally grown means fresh and reflects our continuing commitment to support our community based small businesses.

What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?

The thrill of pulling a great shot and watching the face of my customers upon first experiencing one of my beverages...sheer joy.
