In his “free time” you’ll find him on the basketball court, golf course or best of all, goofing around with his two remarkable grandchildren while enjoying a fine cup of Kangaroo Coffee.

TYSON PETERSON

It only took one meeting with Doug for Tyson to know Kangaroo was a different business altogether.  Kangaroo’s mission of sustainability and social contribution motivated and inspired him. By day, rain or shine, he keeps the wheels greased at Kangaroo. By night he tries to find out which colors to paint his fantasy miniatures.

ADAM BUSTAMANTE

Adam believes that behind every tasty cup and happy customer, there’s a well-prepared team working in harmony. From boss to barista to buyer, he hopes to make everyone’s life that much easier and thinks that Kangaroo Coffee is a place most deserving of it. The Roo family is full of excellent people, and he’s determined to ensure that nobody goes without.

A Colorado native, Adam is an unapologetic nerd and enjoyer of the finer things in life; like petting cute animals every day and watching his favorite streamers ply their trade. Just don’t tell anyone he prefers the matcha.

LILY DIAZ

Lily moved to Colorado Springs from Las Vegas, Nevada in May of 2020 with her partner, and is here to stay. In 2017, after working in retail for some time, she decided to dip her toe into the coffee realm and has been in the field ever since.

To Lily, coffee is more than a yummy potion to get you going in the morning, it’s a vessel that helps her make connections with those that she meets. Nothing brings Lily more joy than to make someone’s day, not only with a warm latte, but with a warm smile as well.

HALEY PETERSON

Haley moved from a small town in Eastern Kansas to Colorado when she was 12 years old, and as soon as she saw the mountains and beautiful scenery she knew it was “home.” She’s been working in gaming retail for almost 8 years, since she’s an avid gamer it was a nice way to share her love of video games. Despite that she wanted to try something new that still involved something she loved, coffee, and making people’s day. In her free time you can catch her watching a variety of films (she’s a bit of a movie buff), gaming with her friends and family, or hanging out with her lovely, but loud beagle, Clementine.
