Today I’m joined by Natalia Alcazar, born in the Pacific Northwest Natalia was exposed early to some of the best coffee from around the world, building interest over the years. As Natalia evolved, her career took her in a different direction working in the corporate world and often being the youngest individual in the room filled with mostly men. Noting that her solutions were often overlooked by executives because she was a young Latina woman.    Coming to a realization, Natalia quit her job, and returned to her roots in coffee. Finding that coffee made her happy because of the shared memories, home and community.   Using her life savings Natalia left to Minneapolis, MN where she enrolled in roasting classes with Mill City Roaster and eventually buying her own roaster and developing her own roasts that would sit behind her brand Dahlia Coffee Co.   Returning to her Mexican roots and naming her company after the National Mexican Flower, Natalia has committed to with her company bringing kindness and making a positive change.     Visit Natalia on IG @dahliacoffeeco and online at www.dahliacoffeeco.com      Don't forget to subscribe to and get lost in a conversation about Everything Coffee on Apple, Spotify or anywhere else you get your podcasts.
