Andrea was born and raised in Quito, Ecuador, Andrea grew up in a country unlike any other. Ecuador offers four incredible regions, the Coast, Andes Mountains, Amazon Jungle, and Galápagos Islands, all within just a few hours of each other. From mountains and rivers to beaches and jungle, Ecuador's beauty is truly mesmerizing.

Andrea spent 15 years at JPMorgan Chase, beginning as a licensed banker, moving into commercial underwriting, and eventually working in technology, where she built automations that saved millions of hours for employees.

Her passion for faith and encouragement also led her to publish her first Christian book, The 7 Secrets for Overwhelming Joy. She wrote the book to help people overcome trauma, abuse, painful experiences, and the burdens of sin that can make life feel hopeless. Her message is simple: your past does not have to define your future. God has a bigger and better plan for your life.

Today, God has led Andrea and her husband to combine their passions: his love of coffee and her passion for business. Together, they are importing coffee beans from Ecuador to be freshly roasted locally in Pearland, Texas, bringing others a little taste of Ecuador while connecting them to the farmers, the land, and the people behind every bean.

Their hope is that every cup not only tastes amazing but inspires people to experience Ecuador for themselves.

Above all, this journey is rooted in faith and gratitude.

Every good and perfect gift is from above. - James 1:17

Saulo was born and raised in Houston, Texas, Saulo carries strong family roots from Delicias, Chihuahua, where his parents were born. From an early age, he developed a passion for working with his hands and understanding how things work.

Saulo graduated from Universal Technical Institute (UTI) with a degree in automotive technology and spent approximately 10 years working in the automotive industry, beginning at Discount Tire and later working for dealerships including Mercedes-Benz and Nissan.

Today, Saulo is pursuing a degree in architectural drafting and engineering, continuing to turn his creativity and hands-on abilities into something meaningful. He has already built two properties and has a natural talent for plumbing, electrical work, construction, and woodworking, a passion he inherited from his grandfather, who was a carpenter for many years.

Outside of work and school, Saulo enjoys dancing salsa, spending time with family, and most importantly, sharing his faith in Christ.

Saulo openly shares his testimony of how Christ helped him overcome alcohol and drug use, using his own story to encourage others who may be struggling. His life is a reminder that no matter where you have been, God can transform your life and give you a new purpose.

Today, Saulo's greatest passion is not simply building homes or creating things with his hands. It is building a life that honors Christ and helping others discover the same hope and freedom he has found in Him.
