Early life

Originally from Maryland[13], Breach was a creative child who demonstrated an interest in the arts from a young age, drawing comics "all the time".[14] He is a self-taught artist.[15]

Career

Breach first had the idea to take coffee art in a new direction while working as a barista at a New York City hotel.[16] Because few people ordered coffee during his late-night shift, he had time to experiment and develop his signature latte art style.[17]

In 2014, Breach left his day jobs as a barista to pursue coffee art full time.[18] Since then, he has made over 10,000 latte portraits, each of which takes three to five minutes to complete.[19] Breach creates latte art for trade shows, conferences, special events, and other private clients.[20] He has also contributed his latte art to public relation campaigns for companies such as Nestle[21], Dunkin'[22], Disney[23] and at events such as ComicCon[24] and South by Southwest[25]. Breach’s clients are located all over the world[26], and have included celebrities such as Joe Jonas and Amy Schumer[27]

Personal life

Breach lives in Los Angeles, California.[28]
