Born and raised in San Clemente, the beach has always been my home. My love for coffee began during my teenage years as a barista, and when I was gifted my first home espresso machine, I knew I wanted to build my own coffee business as a way to share great coffee and meaningful connection. For me, coffee has always been more than a beverage; it's a way to bring people together. Whether it’s a daily morning ritual with my spouse or an intimate catch up with a close friend, coffee has a way of connecting us, both in life’s little pauses and biggest milestones. I’m honored to serve others during their most joyful moments, from celebrating a marriage to last a lifetime, to welcoming the newest member of their family.

Today, I live in Newport Beach with my husband where we spend weekends exploring new coffee shops and collecting calico seashells from our neighborhood beaches - the inspiration behind the name Calico Coffee Cart. Thank you for being here and for supporting a dream rooted in passion, community, and a good cup of coffee. I can’t wait to connect with you at your next event.
