Casey is the CEO and founder of Event Espresso. Out of her convertible, she started her business 13 years ago to share her love of coffee and value of the community that revolves around it; so much so, that she created a business that would share this community with people and places it hadn’t necessarily accessed before. She leads with integrity and compassion and seeks to bring these values to the forefront of Event Espresso and its clients.

We like to say that Zack is our Zack of all trades. He is calm and present in every situation and knows how to ensure every event is setup for success. He loves people and it really shines. Zack runs our West Coast hub, takes lead in New Orleans, repairs machines, and tackles anything else that comes his way!
