Hey! I'm Keith. I'm an entrepreneur and red vines enthusiast.
I spent the majority of my professional career as a produce broker in Southern and Northern California. In the last couple years I have founded two successful businesses; Pepo Melo - Fruit Bowls and Nosy Neighbors - Coffee & Donuts.
I'm excited about what's next, always brainstorming and looking for new opportunities.

The David Allen Blog - Restaurant of the Week: Pepo Melo
Taking the place of a Chinese antiques store that never seemed to have any customers and yet hung on for years, Pepo Melo is a hive of activity in the morning, and for all I know at other times of day as well. It specializes in fruit bowls, most of which are vegan, and seems to be a hit with the colleges crowd. more
