Since I was little I have lived in the world of coffee. I was born in one of the most productive areas of this crop, which is why I grew up in the environment of cultivating and harvesting coffee, then I emigrated from Copan to San Pedro Sula where I worked as a Barista in a coffee shop. From there I got a job opportunity in a coffee exporter. From that date until today, it has been my line of work.
I currently work for Café de Mi Pueblo Internacional, as a commercial administrative assistant, auditor of certifications in the different seals that the exporter can obtain.
