I serve as a part-time manager for a brand new shop. It's been an exciting experience working with a business from the ground up. All of our coffees are relationship-based and fairly traded coffees. We roast our beans in house and serve a small town community and college with the goal of creating a space to learn, be, come, and enjoy.

Lots!

About Me:

I work for the CCO, Coalition for Christian Outreach, doing campus ministry at Juniata College in Huntingdon, PA. Each CCO partners with colleges, churches, or local organizations to develop men and women to live out their Christian faith in every area of life. My partnership at Juniata is serving as a part-time manager of Standing Stone Coffee Company.

I finished my undergrad in Communications and Media Studies with a Graphic Art minor from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 2007.

I move from small town to small town. I enjoy motorcycles, running, art, macs, and great coffee.
