Joined 4 years ago from San Antonio

I am not only a lover of writing and reading, but I am defined as an obsessive connoisseur of coffee. That is why I am here on this earth, I like to think, and I have made it my quest to write and write about all things coffee related so that everyone out there with like interests can enjoy it as much as I do!

I know coffee is supposed to be fun, so while I do love to provide educational knowledge about the great bean, I also focus on the latest and greatest trends out there so that we can keep on enjoying our daily cups of joe.

My home site where I showcase all of my favorite coffee supplies is thecoffeebump.com, which I came upon when I realized that my love and devotion to coffee is something that I need to take full time. I would be overjoyed to hear from you and talk about all things java, which is my favorite past time. That is so McCoffee of me!
