Shawn Seebach grew up in a small town in MN with a beautiful Food Co-op, the place where she learned her love for delicious food and good coffee. After spending over a decade working at Food Co-ops in the mid-west, she moved to Portland and has worked at Equal Exchange since 2012. Here favorite way to brew coffee is in a French Press.

 

Stephanee DiMaggio started her journey working in Fair Trade coffee back in her college days at UCSC with a student led non-profit that sourced coffee from PRODECOOP in Nicaragua* and has been hooked (addicted) ever since. Stephanee began working at Equal Exchange in 2011 in our Massachusetts office as a Sales Rep. In 2016, she moved to Portland with her husband and dog and now works as a Senior Sales Manager in the West. Her favorite coffee brewing method is the Chemex.

*Fun fact: PRODECOOP was also the first co-op Equal Exchange sourced coffee from over 30 years ago.
