About Toadstool

Established in 2026

Toadstool Teahouse began with one goal in mind, bringing people together through tea.

I believe that within every cup of tea lies the power to foster deeper connections with each other. Allowing us to escape from the stress of daily life, the nuances of tea give us a greater appreciation for our lives and those around us.

By writing about what I learn, I hope to open the door for everyone to explore the world of fine tea.

The owner and founder of Toadstool Teahouse.

My passion for tea began when I visited the Gorreana Tea Factory in the Azores. Enthralled by the wonders of tea, I later joined the Teaparker Teahouse at Penn State University. It was here that I greatly expanded my knowledge of tea, led gongfu tea ceremonies, and taught new students about the world of tea.

My long term goal is to have a physical location for Toadstool Teahouse where people can form a community and enjoy good tea.

Outside of brewing tea, I loves spending time with my cat Iroh, playing video games, reading sci-fi novels, and exploring nature.
