“All of my coworkers and managers are super helpful, encouraging and really good at what they do. It's a great environment to be working in, thank you for making this possible.”

— Gustavo Elvir, graduate of our spring cohort, Ground Up Coffee

“This program was so wonderful I feel lucky to have been a part of it. I will keep in touch about applications and possible job landings… I’m super thankful to you and your program for giving me such a strong start.”

— Chana Goldbloom, graduate of our summer cohort, Pedestrian Coffee

“Gustavo, as a person is wonderful! Great character, hard-working, respectful, professional. He seems to have a solid foundation for barista/Coffee Shop work through your program! All cafés vary in their own way, but he was able to adapt far more quickly than someone who would have no café/espresso base drink experience..”

— Alex Theoharis, Owner of Ground Up Coffee
