S3E18, Part 1: Joellen Depakakibo's First Coffee Jobs

Remember when cafés had couches?

In this podcast, Pinhole Coffee owner Joellen Depakakibo walks us through her life growing up just outside of Chicago. She ended up going to college at DePaul and moving to Chicago, which lead to her first jobs in coffee shops.

Check back Thursday for Part 2, when Joellen will tell us all about her gig at Blue Bottle and then her eventual departure to open Pinhole up on Cortland in Bernal Heights. Pinhole is open specific days and hours during shelter-in-place. Check their website or social media for details.

​We recorded this podcast on Zoom during quarantine in San Francisco in April 2020.
