Sophie is our BARISTA of the month!

Aug 10, 2021

My oh my, what a bright spot she is at Inspired. Sophie is super friendly and outgoing. She is also incredible with the trainees.

Here are a couple things about Sophie that make her unique and amazing:

Sophie has 12 SHEEP DOGS. They are competition dogs for sheep herding, and those competitions includes some traveling around the US. She trains them all, and they’ve won ribbons. The dogs are by nature hyper, but the sheep calm them down. 

Sophie was born in the UK and lived there for 13 years! Her family has been in the dog industry for a LONG time, even back in the UK, and they came to the US to teach people about training sheep dogs. Also a big part of their moving here was for Sophie and giving her disabilities the attention she needs! So inspiring.

Sophie surprisingly doesn’t have much of an accent, but every once in a while when she says a word you’ll catch her UK history. We are SO grateful to have Sophie apart of our Inspired team – she definitely brings a lot of life around here.
