How We Got Started

A woman in a kitchen preparing food, with various kitchen appliances, containers, and ingredients around her.

I started my journey by baking biscotti and scones at home for local coffee shops. In 2007, I opened Di-Tazza Gourmet Coffee on 164th Ave. in Vancouver, WA. After three wonderful years, I moved to my current locations on 192nd Ave. in Camas, WA, and off Padden in Vancouver, WA. Since then, my business has blossomed, and I now offer a wide range of delicious food and drinks.

​

The coffee industry is quite competitive, especially for small businesses, but I strive to stand out with our motto: “The coffee shop not on every corner.” At Di-Tazza, we aim to provide our customers with something special, offering fantastic locally sourced coffee and quality homemade food made from scratch with fresh, local ingredients

Treating Customers like Family

My customers are incredibly important to me, and you have allowed me to create the family-style business I've always dreamed of. Without you and my amazing employees, this business would not have grown to where it is today.

​

Every day, I welcome new customers through my doors, and I hope that their experience at Di-Tazza is a positive one. I want each of them to feel like they came in as a customer but left as a friend. I am truly grateful for the love and support of my family, friends, and customers, without whom I would not have this business today.
