Born in a Kenyan refugee camp after his parents fled Ethiopia, Elsh was inspired to make the most of his life.

After being accepted into a dentistry course at The University of Melbourne, he moved to Australia, with limited funds to sustain his education.

Elsh embarked on an ambitious plan to translate Melbourne's coffee culture into a successful entrepreneurial endeavour, proving that where we start our journey, does not need to be where we finish it.
