Haley Watt

Haley is one of our newest additions to the shop. She’s trustworthy and true. And don’t let her shortness fool you, she’s still full of spunk and has a big heart. She is currently going to school for Interior Design and Architecture, who knows, maybe you’ll see her on HGTV someday! When she’s not at the shop, she’s either going on an adventure with her husband and pups or grabbing a cup of coffee with friends. Stop on by and welcome her to the team!

Kaci Luedemann

Kaci is our Ohio native but has quickly grown to love the natural state and everyone she has met in it. A few things you should know about Kaci are that she would rather watch the sunrise than the sunset, own a cat rather than a dog, and will take all the backroads overdriving one mile on the highway. She loves the smell of fresh flowers and the feeling of sunshine on her face. If she’s not in the shop then she’s probably sitting on her back porch, reading a good book, or throwing together a charcuterie board for friends. She enjoys listening to people and is always open to learning something new, so next time you stop by don’t be afraid to start up a conversation! ◡̈

Brooklyn Nash

Brooklyn started her coffee journey with Starbucks and Mylo Coffee Co. before finding her home at RMC. You can always catch her singing behind the bar and making a new friend! Brooklyn recently started her own thrift business, Clover Marketplace. Check it out on Instagram! She loves cold weather and her cat, Parklee. A perfect day for Brooklyn would include coffee, blasting music with the windows down, the sun shining, and quality time with people she loves. Stop in for a chat!

Collin Gallimore

Drawn to Conway to study Journalism and Spanish at UCA, Collin is a storyteller who enjoys a good conversation. He loves everything outdoors, but especially enjoys traveling around the state to mountain bike and camp. In his opinion, nothing brings the woods to life like a good pour over by the campfire. You can catch him at Round Mountain or out on the trails, no matter how hot it gets in the summer.

She recently graduated from UCA with an undergraduate degree in Psychology and will be returning to UCA in the fall to pursue a doctorate in Occupational Therapy.
