What is your idea of a perfect day in D.C.? How would you spend it?
"I’d be outside all day, sitting on a patio somewhere with a beer, and then hit my favorite spot in Georgetown to watch the planes come in by Key Bridge, which I’ve been doing ever since I moved here. Cheesy? Yes. Relaxing and entertaining? For sure."

Is D.C. a great coffee city?
"D.C. is becoming a great coffee city. Just like the restaurant scene, we’re catching up. D.C. baristas continuously take the top spots in the South East Regional Barista Competition (yes, there is such a thing). I think you can judge a coffee culture by the level of knowledge of the consumer, and there are a vast number of educated coffee consumers here. I have lengthy conversations every day with customers about coffee, which just tells me people are hungry for more of a coffee culture here."
