Jenn Chen is a writer and photographer whose work in specialty coffee has been expansive. We chat about the benefits and challenges of being self-taught and self-employed, not listening to advice from people who've not been where you are or where you want to go, and what opportunities brands might leave on the table if they aren't thinking about their copy, imagery, and identity.
