When it comes to life, Lauren drinks it in. Her spirit and love for coffee, and beverages in general, led her to work at SolaBev. Lauren started her beverage journey as a barista at Denver’s Peaberry Coffee Co. After a couple of years of making customers their favorite coffee drinks, Lauren moved to Mont Blanc Gourmet where she moved upstream and grew her career, from lab assistant to lab director. Lauren’s keen understanding of service systems and coffee bars is key in the development of products that meet both the operational needs of the business and desires of customers. At SolaBev, Lauren develops all alternative beverages and helps roasters hone in ideal flavor profiles for their coffees. Lauren brings her youthful exuberance to SolaBev and a true sense of adventure to everything she accomplishes — in the office or outside. She and rescue kitty love to explore Denver and region, taking in a hike in the hills, while enjoying her own special version of “coffee on the rocks” made with a SolaBev capsule.
