About Me:

I am a recent graduate of Belmont University, majoring in Music Business.

I am a songwriter, and music has and will always be my passion. But it just so happens that coffee is as well.

I have been in the coffee industry for about 5 years now and was asked to come on to The Perch in December of 08 to help open the store.
