MEET THE publisher

Hey, I'm Vanessa Cole!

Vanessa Cole is a seasoned Coffee News publisher with over 17 years of experience supporting small businesses and connecting communities. She started in Northwest Georgia and now runs 10 thriving editions each week across Northeast Florida, from St. Augustine to Port Orange.

Before publishing, Vanessa spent 10 years in law enforcement, bringing the same attention to detail and commitment to service to her work with Coffee News. She runs the business alongside her husband of over 20 years, Randy, and they share a love for their three rescue dogs—Ace, Bella, and Pepper.

Active in her community, Vanessa serves on multiple local boards and chambers, including the Port Orange South Daytona Chamber and the Professional Women of Flagler County. When she’s not out delivering Coffee News, you’ll likely find her paddleboarding or volunteering with a local dog rescue.
