Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland
My career started behind the bar in luxury hotels across Europe, including Four Seasons, Kempinski and InterContinental, where I developed a solid foundation in beverage culture and hospitality standards. After joining EHL, I proposed and built the school's coffee education program from scratch, using SCA as the industry reference framework — a path that led me to become an SCA Authorized Trainer. I believe that to teach well, you never stop learning. Competing at the Swiss Barista Championship was a deliberate choice, a way to test myself against industry standards and bring that experience back into the classroom.
Developed and currently leads EHL's coffee education program, growing it to serve 400–500 hospitality students annually. Delivers coffee fundamentals and hands-on bar training in EHL's operational outlets, drawing on over 10 years of luxury hotel bar management and mixology experience. Also engaged as a coffee specialist for external corporate partners. SCA Authorized Trainer (AST) with professional-level certifications in barista skills and roasting.
