About me

I am an aspiring coffee professional and experienced barista exploring the coffee industry. I am currently growing my skills in roasting, training baristas and latte art. Like many people, I originally looked at hospitality as a means to an end while studying at uni. But over time I grew to cherish the impact a cup of coffee could have on someone’s day. As my barista skills grew, I learned that making someone a cup of coffee is extremely rewarding. I strive for perfection with every customer, brew, pour, roast and training session because I recognise the effect it has on the end customer. My long-term goals in coffee are to help build an industry that operates sustainably and adds value to people’s lives at every level of the supply chain.
