Jeanette's Story
Life
Aloha! I'm living in Hawaii (on the Big Island - East Side). Am now considered a 'farmer' growing coffee, white pineapple, cacao, and tea on 24 acres in beautiful Mountain View. The property also contains a full coffee processing facility from wet milling to roasting and packaging. If you had asked me ten years ago what my life would be like today, I wouldn't have said this. But it is great. In my spare time, I work on my house, having been neglected for the past 10 years while I was working on my businesses; play with my 4 dogs and generally 'cocoon'. I also have a trike (3 wheeled motorcycle) that is wonderful on warm sunny days. If anyone is on the island, make sure to stop by Hilo Coffee Mill and say 'aloha'.
College
After receiving my AA degree from Allan Hancock College in Santa Maria, I then moved to San Francisco and attended California State Un...Expand for more
iversity at San Francisco. I received both my BA degree in Liberal Studies and a teaching credential in 1975. In 1992 I received My Master's degree in Business Administration.
Workplace
After graduating from CSUSF I didn't find a teaching job. So I continued going to school part time and found a job managing service stations full time. Realizing there were no advancement opportunities, I got a job with Bank of America. That lasted 23 1/2 years! I moved to Hawaii and started my own espresso cafe. From that, I verically integrated and started a coffee wholesale business too! In 2004 I sold the espresso cafe and have devoted more time in building the wholesale coffee business, starting a coffee farm and visitor center. If you are on the Big Island of Hawaii, stop by Hilo Coffee Mill in Mountain View and say 'aloha!'.
