About Me

I lead green sales, quality control, and marketing at FRINJ, a company that grows and processes specialty coffee in Southern California. In 2026, one of our California Geisha coffees was selected for the Dubai Coffee Auction, an honor bestowed on only 17 of the world’s best producers. Today our coffees are served in some of the world’s most discerning cafes from Los Angeles to Shanghai. Beyond coffee, I am a co-founder of Ojai Community Broadcasting Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that is working to establish an FCC-licensed low-power station on 99.3FM (KOJY-LP-OJAI). You can find more information about the project and listen to our online stream at ojairadio.org. Prior to Ojai, I lived in Berlin, where I was the editor-in-chief of Deutsche Telekom's Electronic Beats digital magazine.
