My name is Diego Campos, I am 32 years old and I have dedicated 13 years of my life to the wonderful world of coffee and I believe that it has been the best decision of my life, because thanks to coffee, I have managed to have a profession, a job and I do and work in what I like. Currently I am the world champion of baristas. I have my own coffee project, a farm called Diamante coffee farm located in the department of Huila - Colombia, a place where we can together with my wife materialize many dreams and continue learning and sharing coffee with the whole world.

I am Shanya Taratikundech from Bangkok, Thailand. For nearly two decades, I've embraced diverse roles: leading at the Promchim Coffee Academy, pioneering as a Microbiologist Coffee Process Research Consultant at Srinakharinwirot University, and holding WCC-certified judgeships. “Coffee inspires me through the diverse people.”
