Ep: 005 Baristas Speak! Barista Interviews from Coffee Champs Knoxville 2017
This weekend I got to go to Coffee Champs in Knoxville, qualifying event for the United States Coffee Championships. While at an event party hosted by Wild Love Bakehouse I sat down with 5 baristas to get their unique take on coffee service, career development, and the future of the cafe industry. Each perspective shines a light on something different that you will find useful for your own career.
It always helps to learn from the experiences of others and this episode includes some really great insights from:
1. Trainer,  Dawn Shanks of Peregrine Espresso in Washington D.C.
2. Manager, Paul Yates of Shenendoah Joe in Harrisburg, VA also Owner of Rock town Coffee Roasters
3. Consultant,Diana Mnatsakanyan-Sapp, Owner, Undercurrent Coffee, Charlotte, NC
4. Barista, Hannah Craig of Quills Coffee in Louisville, KY
5. U.S. Barista Champion, Lem Butler of Counter Culture Coffee in Durham, NC
