Home: South Shore, Chicago.

I was born in Bethesda, Maryland but have lived in a variety of places, including California, Tennessee,Georgia and Chicago. These experiences, alongside 20 years in the customer service industry, have
equipped me with a broad skill set and unwavering dedication to service
excellence. At Kikwetu, I oversee all aspects of customer service, shipping and delivery. I also help manage and grow our eCommerce and subscription business.

I live in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood and lead all aspects of Kikwetu's kitchen operations. Born & raised on the South Side of Chicago, I feel blessed to have the opportunity to contribute to Kikwetu’s vision of building connections through coffee and community in my hometown."

With over two decades of dedicated experience in the culinary arts, from Napa Valley to New York City & Chicago to Atlanta, I bring a proven track record of success to every kitchen he leads. My career is built on a foundation of respect, teamwork, and a relentless pursuit of culinary excellence.

Home:   I currently reside in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood and have been here for 6 years. I was born and raised in Tanzania in East Africa.

I see myself as Kikwetu's brand ambassador, the person that holds the door open so people can fully experience Kikwetu. At Kikwetu, I get the opportunity to not only to be close to home, but to be part of a team that provides a solution for a busy world through something that is a simple as a high quality cup of coffee. I look forward to building something special with Kikwetu over the next few years.

I am responsible for creating memorable experiences for our customers at every touch point. I strive to ensure every event is a unique representation of our commitment to quality and authentic hospitality. For me, each day working for Kikwetu is an opportunity to connect with individuals, understand their needs, and exceed their expectations.
