ABOUT LOST SHOE

Co-Owner/Roaster/Finance & Business Operations

Favorite Lost Shoe Brew:  As a roaster I love sourcing coffees from origins all over the world to present a coffee lineup that is full of diverse flavor profiles. I am particularly fond of fruity Ethiopian coffees, they are what got me into specialty coffee years ago and are my go to when educating consumers that not all coffees taste the same! I also really enjoy a nice crisp Bier, our Kölsch-style ale. It reminds me of our travels to Germany and the amazing beer culture we experienced there. 

Favorite part of working at Lost Shoe:  Community has been the focus of Lost Shoe since it was just an idea on paper. Being able to create a space to bring our community together has been so fulfilling and we wouldn’t be able to carry out this dream without our amazing team! 

Favorite thing to do outside of work: Relaxing by the lake with a good brew
