☕ Meet the Trainer: Chris Gallon
Chris has been part of the coffee industry since 2014, spending most of that time as an AST. His journey has taken him from Barista, through Wholesale Account Management, and into the world of coffee training.
Since then, Chris has worked with **7,000+ learners** and a huge variety of businesses — from independent owner-operators to high-volume multisite teams.
We’ve been lucky enough to have Chris as our resident Barista, Brewing & Sensory Trainer since 2021, where he brings his experience, curiosity and passion for coffee to every session. You’ll also find him working alongside Heidi at our private events.
For Chris, education should ultimately be enjoyable and accessible. He’s always looking for new ways to break down complex coffee concepts and make them simple, practical and, most importantly, fun.
So, whether you’re looking to sharpen your barista skills, understand your brew better, or dive deeper into sensory — Chris is here to help you get there. ☕️
