Hello, I'm Thomas, a graduate in Finance and Business Law from Perth, Western Australia. My professional journey has strengthened my analytical skills, particularly through my experience in foreign currency markets at a dynamic start-up currency brokerage.With a passion for community growth, I’ve contributed as Program Coordinator for The Boab Network and Communications Manager for Dismantle Inc. To broaden my expertise, I briefly ventured into audit and accounting at BDO, where I gained valuable insights into financial systems.For the past six years, I've immersed myself in the vibrant food and beverage industry, working in various roles at the esteemed Leftfield Coffee Roasters. My experience spans from spearheading sales initiatives to managing accounts and elevating product quality.Recently, I took on a new challenge as the Senior Coffee Roaster and Green Bean Buyer, where I oversee production, mentor a team, and leverage my business law and finance background to make strategic decisions in commodity purchasing.Having now earned my Arabica Q-Grading certification from the Coffee Quality Institute, I bring enhanced expertise to evaluating and selecting top-quality coffee beans. I am passionate about sourcing coffee directly from farmers who share my commitment to quality, environmental stewardship, and economic sustainability, fostering partnerships that benefit everyone within the coffee industry.
