"The Coffee Sensei"
About Me
Kelley Smith is CEO and Founder of BaristaSource LLC, the Southeast's only fully accredited Barista Training Facility and Barista Talent Acquisition firm. With over 25years of leading diverse teams in the retail, Food and Beverage, and Speciality coffee industries, Kelley was ready to venture out on her own. She created BaristaSource LLC because after working for Specialty Coffee in various positions she personally witnessed the lack of promotional opportunities for Minorities as well as reoccurring issues with staffing and training within Speciality Coffee that continue to cause heartburn for the industry to this day.
To build BaristaSource, she brought together a core team of growth minded Veterans and up and coming Leaders to provide critical analysis and strategic planning on how to effectively solve the problem at hand in such a way that it can be replicated easily for quick scalability and at the same time, could underserved communities.
Kelley supports a diverse portfolio of 501c3 organizations that specifically support underserved communities, at-risk youth, and job placement programs for re-entry candidates.
