Andrew has been in the hospitality industry for over 12 years now and specialised in coffee for the last 5. Over this time he has learnt many things, the most important of which is that there is always a lot more to learn.
Andrew, his brother and sister started Taylor St Baristas in March 2006 and have opened 6 sites since then. His role with Taylor St has been to develop and train all of their baristas, source and maintain equipment, oversee operations and of course, work as a barista.
As a trainer Andrew has developed course materials at an advanced level for their baristas and for the Level 2 VRQ in Barista skills. These courses both cover Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, smoothies, work flow and health and safety.
He enjoys the interaction and joint learning that teaching provides and looks forward to continuing to work with the London School of Coffee
