Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills and what you can offer in regards to an exchange.: I learned about the coffee industry while working as a barista in college. I recently graduated from Belmont University's Curb school of Entertainment and Music Business and am working as a videographer. Right now, I'm finalizing filming dates for a documentary that will seek to raise awareness about the lives of African growers and shed light on largely unseen side of the coffee most consumers take for granted. If you are a grower, supplier, shop owner, industry professional, roaster, consultant, etc, or know someone who is, living or working in Ghana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, or Sudan drop me a line; I would love to hear your story.

He also runs a non-profit organization that works with the children of coffee farmers, (along with other children) in southern Ethiopia. He has strong ties with Ethiopia and is very interested in its development. I would love to give you his email address should you need it.
