Hey.
I’m Rothko. Currently 39, married since 1999, living in Austin, Texas since 2004.
I’m a barista. I love coffee and everything about it. I love making coffee, I love drinking coffee, I love talking about coffee — espresso in particular. I love making someone their daily treat. I love helping students stay awake while they study. I love training new baristas. I love learning more about coffee — it’s something you can spend a lifetime learning about and working on; there’s always room for improvement.
I've also been exploring my self through art. Not sure I'm an Artist with a capital A (as opposed to an artist, lowercase), but perhaps that distinction is artificial and invalid. I dunno, but I do a lot of self-portraits trying to show who I really truly am.
