Learn from a True Industry Professional

Choosing an educator is the most important step in your coffee journey. With nearly 20 years of hands-on experience, I bring a rare depth of knowledge to every class. I'm not just a teacher; I'm a café operator, a sensory judge, a competitor's coach, and a lifelong student of coffee. My goal is to demystify the complex and make learning engaging, supportive, and incredibly rewarding.
