Our Team

  • Chris Human

    Owner

    Chris’ coffee story began circa 2000 when he was barista trained by a local roaster. His first experience with craft coffee was in 2003 when attending a concert at Rohs Street Cafe in Cincinnati where he was enamored with the third place that RSC was providing as well as the quality of their coffee. Over the years coffee began to integrate more and more into Chris’ journey through the venues that he managed, until 2015 when Human and Bean partnered to launch Pneuma Coffee Roasters. As one of the founders of Pneuma Coffee, Chris is passionate about working to build direct relationships with our producers. Over the years Chris has been integral in the renovation and build out of a dozen or more coffee spaces and loves to consult and share his experience in the development of our partners new spaces. In his spare time he loves seeing live music and enjoying the outdoors.

  • Jaquey Bean

    On most Tuesdays and Fridays you can find Jaquey playing the part of a symphony conductor as bags, labels, boxes, and coffee swirl around her as she directs our operations of packaging and shipping ensuring our customers all over the country receive their coffee like music to their mouths. In her spare time she loves to spend time with her family, travel and visit her sister in Florida.

  • Gabrielle Larkin
