“I’m so thrilled that Barista Nation is finally in Texas! I see all the good this event has done in the local coffee communities of past host cities. And I’m so excited to finally have it in my home city.
These events are designed to be approachable for baristas and coffee professionals at any experience level.
Our goal is to give local coffee communities access to the most current thinking and tools through sessions. That are presented by highly respected coffee professionals locally and abroad.
It’s not a top down talking kind of event where ‘important’ people preach at you all day. It’s quite the opposite! All sessions are treated as open forum discussions and hands on learning opportunities.
The overall attitude of Barista Nation is ‘No Barista Left Behind’. I love this, and I’m so honored to have been asked to be apart of it!”
