Michael Diane Wood | she/her
2022 US Barista Stage Manager
Independent
I was born and raised in Tallahassee, Florida and attended Florida State University to get a degree in Art History. I have been working in the coffee industry since 2017 while I was still in school. During that time I fell in love with coffee and decided to dedicate my time and energy to growing within the industry and community. Throughout that time, I have worked and managed cafes in Tallahassee. I have also volunteered, helped coach, and participated in competitions and developed a love and appreciation for the competition environment, especially from the volunteering perspective. I spend my time outside of coffee working on wood burning art commissions, spending time with my friends and family, and taking care of my amazing dog.
