Profile Information

What is your position in the coffee industry?
barista
Where are you located? ( City and Country )
Grand Rapids, MI
How many years have you been in the industry?
6 years
If you are a barista or shop, are you interested in a barista exchange with another coffee shop/barista?
maybe
Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
I've only been doing coffee for the past 6 years, but in that time, I have managed a couple of shops. Truthfully, though, I love making coffee (drip/vac/French Press/Aeropress), pulling great shots, and pleasing the customer more than just about anything else I do.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
I would love to travel - would be able to do regional trips (Illinois, Ohio, Indiana) - given the right timing.
About Me:
For me life is about Coffee and Congas - and I find the two similar. The rhythm of pulling shots in a decent shop is like dropping in to a great song. I'm happily married to a law student (a feat in and of itself). I plan on having my own shop to present coffee in it's proper context as soon as I learn enough about the other aspects of the business.
About My Company:
I've worked in a series of valiant efforts.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
Having something to say about coffee in any coversation, regardless of the topic.http://www.myspace.com/dizzyjdn

Hey it was great meeting you as well and sharing in tips and tricks. Hope to come check out your cafe in MI some day soon was telling my girl about it. As soon as we get back from the trip I will get you some pics of the drum. If you run across any pics at the jam can you send some my way my crew wishes I took some.

I am really glad to have met you, it made the weekend as best as I hoped for. There were so many fun people and an all around good time. Use this address, 5510 Lafayette Rd Indianapolis, In 46254. That is B Java so now you can get here if you are passing by our fine city.
