At the age of 12 I had a passion brew in my heart to become an owner of my own business. During that same year I developed a love for coffee shops and decided that my goal in life was to open my own coffee shop. In the spring of 2017 I was presented with the opportunity of building and opening Café 23:5, my first step in achieving my goal.  Throughout the year I have had the privilege of working with a great group of talented people that have helped me along this journey.  I'm proud to announce that my goal of opening a coffee shop has finally been achieved. Im looking forward to serving my home community some fresh brewed coffee and pastries. See y'all at the shop!
