Terres De Café
Please tell us a little about yourself:
I’m currently working in Terres de Cafe in Paris, France. I am a trainer there and a barista. This is my second competition.
I got into the café world completely by chance. After starting my studies to become a sports coach, I got injured and couldn’t complete my training. After that, I worked in many different jobs, until I eventually ended up in a specialty coffee café. That’s where I unexpectedly fell in love with coffee.
What are you excited to do while you are in Dubai?
I don’t know yet!
What are your interests outside of coffee?
Football, sports, and music.
Is there anyone you’d like to thank?
I want to thank my coach Jordan Tachnakian and my family!
