About this listen
Emily Graves (they/them) works as Independents Channel Manager at Union Hand Roasted and is an undeniably passionate advocate for accessibility, diversity and inclusion in the coffee industry.
In this conversation, we delve into Em’s experiences throughout their career from hospitality into specialty coffee, and cover a wide range of topics from barriers to entry and progression in the coffee industry, such as - do entry level jobs in coffee really exist? And are the requirements to work as a barista keeping too high and keeping too many people out of the industry all together?
Emily shares their experiences working with deaf and hard and hearing people at different points of their career, and we discuss ways in which the industry needs to be more accessible, creating spaces that welcome people with disabilities rather than waiting for them to ask for accessibility adaptations.
