Favorite Coffee: Kopi Sumatra, Medium Roast
For years I have aspired to be an entrepreneur, taking entrepreneurship classes since I was seven years old, and going to a local University for business. I’ve always wanted to have a business that I could run and be responsible for, which has always been a thrilling idea to me. I’ve been a coffee drinker since about eleven or twelve years old, though I wasn’t necessarily dedicated. Throughout high-school I drank plenty of frappes, never getting anything that was on the menu. I liked to try new coffees and I loved my drink full of flavor. Now, I love drinking our roasted coffee black, and I refuse to put any sort of creamer or addition of any sort. It's great as it comes in my opinion.

Job Title: Marketing Emu
Favorite Coffee: Anything Dark and Black
I have always been interested in seeing how things worked and learning to do things myself, many childhood toys were sacrificed in the search for knowledge of their inner workings. My endeavors into web design started in the early 2000's by learning how to read HTML and code my own websites by hand. Times have sure changed since those days. I now have a family, 3 kids, and I wish for just a few more hours in each day to spend with them. As a DIY'er I now brew my own beer with my dad, smoke my own BBQ, and can now roast my own coffee beans. It sure is fascinating to learn all the details that are important to tasting the perfectly brewed cup of coffee.

Favorite Coffee: Kopi Sumatra, Medium Roast
Growing up in New England, I have fond memories of waking up to the smell of drip coffee. However, it never quite tasted as pleasant as it smelled. So, I didn't even try coffee again until college; it was quite bitter. Thanks to yummy lattes I became a committed coffee lover! In recent years I placed high school exchange students from all over the world in local homes for a year long educational and cultural experience. I've hosted and placed both boys and girls from China, South Korea, Spain, Brazil, Thailand, Slovakia, Italy, Germany, Serbia, and Cameroon. Having lived in Australia, I enjoyed teaching, traveling and wine. Coffee like wine comes from many countries in the world. I have a big interest in both!

Job Title: Social Gu-Roo
Favorite Coffee: Iced Caramel Macchiato
I am a young aspiring college student interesting in public speaking for a profession so it just seemed fitting to take on the role of social media for our business. I’ve been drinking coffee for a long time. I prefer to add some sort of syrup because I like my coffee sweet and full of flavor. A friend that owns a local coffee shop makes me mocha's with our coffee as the espresso and they are the best mocha's I have ever had. I get behind our company 100% because the flavor is amazing and mixes together like beautiful music.
