It fascinated me then and still to this day when I go to Italy to see my relatives l’m transfixed by the coffee experience. It’s more than just a drink. It brings people together, it’s a culture, where problems are discussed, where issues are resolved, where ideas are formed and where laughter and love can be heard all around. I’ve always had the dream of owning my own coffee van. I would see the Piaggio Ape vans drive through the lovely Italian countryside carrying fruits and vegetables evoking great memories. 

I left university over 25 years ago, forging my way into the corporate business world. Working within the telecomms arena, I’ve worked for Deutsche Telekom, Virgin Media, BT and Openreach. All within Marketing and most recently in Project Management. Over the last few years I began to really take time to think about my real passions and what I really wanted to achieve and do in my life..ensuring no regrets and no ‘what ifs’.
