Getting to Know Sagebrush, Episode #3 - Matt Kellso
Over the last several months we've sent out emails with a Q&A about my sister Zoë and my wife Jenna. It was fun to have them create & fill out the survey and I love that it helps you guys get to know us a little bit better. I'm thinking of doing these on a regular basis because there is always more to learn.
However, I've never completed one of these surveys myself. I think I've avoided it because I feel like by sending out these emails you already get to know me. For the sake of continuity and because I need to finish the about us section of the website, I should answer the questions.
Q & A With Matt Kellso:
My name is: Matt
Where were you born?
Ypsilanti, MI

A challenge, my family, God's Word

Coffee brewing equipment, records, books

my phone and a thermos of Sagebrush Coffee
If I could live in any decade it would it be?

On a Sunday afternoon, I like to:
Most Sundays start with church, but the best ones have a nap and football in there too.
My favorite hobby:
I don't have a lot of time for hobbies, but Sagebrush started as one, so I guess roasting coffee. I lead a Bible study with my church and love spending time with my church family too.
What is your favorite TV show/shows?
Arrested Development, Seinfeld, I'm enjoying the new Lemony Snicket show on Netflix right now.
If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
Although I was raised in South Carolina, I haven't spent enough time on the east coast.
What is your favorite coffee from Sagebrush?
I'm always a sucker for dry process Ethiopians, so Drima Zede has to be my favorite.
What talent besides Sagebrush coffee do you have?
I don't know how to answer this question, so I'm just going to use it as an opportunity to say that my favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. I love that we all work together on Sagebrush and I enjoy going out to a new restaurant together, or watching a funny TV show, or just making each other laugh.
The best part about working at Sagebrush is:
As our about us page says, I've always loved coffee from when I was a very little kid. The best part of Sagebrush is that I was able to take my hobby and turn it into a business. The best part of the business is bringing coffee that I love to as many people as possible.
