  • Meet the WS Team: Charla Bultman

    A typical day for you starts with...
    Waking up a bit too early (too many early mornings in the coffee industry have ruined me), watering my plants, and getting a beautiful mug full of coffee from the good folk of Purple Door Coffee before I walk across to the Outpost.

    Tell us about your life and adventures outside of Winter Session…
    Outside of my part-time job at Winter Session, I work full-time as a grants specialist with a local nonprofit, Colorado Coalition for the Homeless. I am also out in our beautiful Colorado mountains as much as possible with my partner, Joel (now another awesome WS employee!) and our cute pup, Marley Jo. I am also often found baking sweet treats for friends (and WS events!), and when I can find the time, love a trip to a local coffee shop for some quality time with a cortado and a good book.

  • Meet the WS Team: Mark Anderson

    Tell us about your life and adventures outside of Winter Session…
    I spend a lot of time on the road playing music with the band Paper Bird. I am the drummer. I also play in the bands Eye and the Arrow, Pine Barrens, Papa Bear and occasionally accompany Patrick Dethlefs and Stelth Ulvang. I also run a storytelling podcast called The Smallest Bone, and am a freelance videographer. I like to be outside - camping, fishing, hiking, swimming - and have eaten far too many breakfast burritos in my twenty-five years on this planet.
