Chris Tellez works closely with our wholesale customers in Ontario and Quebec. His coffee resume is impressive – recently winning both the 2014/2015 Ontario Barista Championship and Canadian Latte Art Championship.
Aimee competed in the CNBC last year where she placed third, she is currently our Head Trainer. This year, she placed third at Regionals all while wearing a cast due to the breaking of her arm weeks earlier!
David Kim is a Roaster for Phil & Sebastian, and is a licensed Q- Grader. This is David’s first time competing at Nationals and we couldn’t be more excited for him!
