Meet the Local Owners

Hi! I’m Amanda and after 30 years in the hotel industry, I’m excited to open the first Just Love Coffee Cafe in the Atlanta area. Serving customers and making someone’s day is in my DNA. When I found the Just Love Coffee family, I knew I was at home. It is a brand that aligns with my personal values of giving back and having a platform to support the local community, as well as serving amazing coffee and delicious food.

I’ve been living in Sandy Springs/Roswell area for nearly 20 years (I’m migrated Wisconsinite, Go Pack Go!) and love the city! I love all of the parks, bike trails, running paths and places that I can take my dogs. As a dog lover, I have volunteered for several local rescue groups over the years. My current rescue dogs include Benjamin, a 7 year old Pyrenees/Husky blend, Cali, a 5 year old Golden/Collie blend, and my most recent foster fail, Ella, an 11 year old blind, American Eskimo/Beagle blend. She literally is the “Old Blind Dog.”

I am eager to continue to support local rescue groups by hosting weekend adoption events, and donating a percentage of merchandise sales to partner rescue organizations.

Prior to joining the Just Love Coffee family, I was lucky enough to use my teaching degrees and experience running hotels in the HR and training departments at InterContinental Hotels Group for 17 years, teaching franchise hotel owners and managers to run successful, guest-centric hotels. Now I am bringing all of the great things I have learned in the hospitality industry to my community and building a place that everyone will Just Love. I’m excited that Just Love Coffee Cafe will be a warm place to gather with our friends, while supporting our neighbors. Bring your small group, your troop, your mom, your brother, your friend, your dog. We’re here to serve you.
