Hi, I’m Jenna.

I’ve been in the coffee industry for a decade now, and I got the idea to start a mobile business in the middle of the pandemic. Wouldn’t it be nice to give the gift of specialty coffee to your coworkers, conference attendees, or wedding guests?

So my partner, Josh, and I built Bloom Coffee Cart by hand in my parents’ garage. I was pretty clueless about materials and plumbing, building a business, and getting it off the ground, but my passion for coffee and a strong desire to build something bigger than myself (literally and figuratively) fueled me.

I learned about coffee, coffee science, and other barista tools at various barista jobs in college and it just stuck. But for most people, coffee is something much simpler – it’s a part of their daily routine. I love being a bright part of someone’s day, whether that’s with a delicious latte or a thoughtful conversation. I love serving people of all different ages, races, sexualities, identities, and backgrounds. To be able to take something as routine as coffee and use it as an opportunity to learn about people, ask them about their day, and make a simple human connection, is a gift.

With Bloom Coffee Cart, I want to cultivate just that: A culture of acceptance, connection, and community. I want every drink to taste like it was thoughtfully made by a loved one, and every interaction to be as comforting as chatting with a close friend. I hope that through Bloom, we can all reap the kindness that we sow and that kindness will just keep on growing.
