April Athlete: Lisa Zancanella

I started as a barista and shop manager in my hometown in Italy, Verona, for two years, where I completed the three Sensory Analysis and Espresso Tasting modules with IIAC and approached SCA with Barista and Brewing foundation courses.

In August 2018 I moved to Portugal where I have developed into roles with more responsibility and challenge, I am now responsible for the public cuppings and events, the selection of coffee and maintaining/ increasing the quality of the coffee while managing the operations of the coffee shops.
