Higher Elevation
Members Club

Take your career to the next level in the online membership club for coffee professionals.

Just as coffee grown at high altitudes excels in quality under ideal conditions, this club is designed to elevate your coffee career to new heights. With exclusive resources such as downloadable resources, regular online events, a supportive online community, and discounts on courses, you’ll get access to tools to help you elevate your career to the next level.

What is Higher Elevation?


I started this club because I know firsthand how challenging it can be to navigate the world of specialty coffee. Whether you’re working to improve your skills as a barista, dreaming of opening your own café, or pushing to succeed in competitions, the journey can feel overwhelming and isolating at times. I created this space to give coffee professionals like you access to the kind of support, resources, and community that I wish I had when I was starting out.
