Gratitude: Our Staff Shares What They're Thankful For
At The Kona Coffee & Tea Company, we believe in sharing gratitude and abundance every day. We are truly thankful for another year of serving our community with 100% Kona coffee and we wanted to share that with you, so we reached out to our staff for a few words. We hope you enjoy some friendly faces sharing what they’re thankful for, in their own words.
David McAllister, Roaster
“I am grateful to Kona Coffee & Tea for allowing me the opportunity to pursue my passion for coffee. I am thankful for my wife who has been my biggest cheerleader and an incredible mother to our beautiful daughter, Adeline Grace. I have cherished the precious moments of fatherhood and am continually in awe. We are honored to be so loved and supported by friends and family, here and abroad.”
Kirstina Bolton Motamedi, Marketing
“I'm very thankful for my family who has supported us as we raise our daughter and really thankful for our health this past year.”
Arturo Correa-Piedrahita, Farm Manager
“We are thankful for the opportunity to work and resolve situations every day on the coffee plantation at The Kona Coffee & Tea Company on the Big Island.”
Chenoa Jesser, Merchandising
“I’m thankful to live in such a special little town full of supportive, loving friends from all walks of life. I’m grateful that my job at the cafe allows me to connect even further with the community, meeting vendors and customers (both human and dog) that have become great friends.”
Marc Beauregard, Roaster, Marketing
“I am thankful for my love, Marissa. For my mom Amy, my dad, Rick, and my sister, Nicole. I am thankful for that diminutive shrub that grows behind us in the photo, for the beautiful tropical waves of Hawaii and for my health and intuition. May all beings be well!”
Danny Jesser, Manager
“I’m thankful for a wonderful daughter, fantastic son, awesome people to work with, and an endless supply of the best coffee in the WORLD.”
Ali Rowe, Graphic Design, Social Media
“I am thankful for another full year of life – I'm thankful for the 'Aina and the community that I'm surrounded by; for Kona Coffee and Tea and how supportive their family business is! Jesus is faithful and I'm thankful to be loved by Him and to love others for another year.”
Thank you for tasting the gratitude, passion, and Aloha in every cup of Kona Coffee & Tea’s 100% Kona coffee.
With warmest Mahalo,
