We believe making good coffee is a form of art and we want to share that art with you.

Our founder, Bryson Debard, has years of experience in the wedding and events industry as a photographer and knows how to engage with guests and see that things run smoothly. 

His wife and co-founder, Kaela, who loves numbers and all things analytical, making her the "COO" of their dream turned business. 

Through their mutual passion for serving people and enjoying quality coffee; the idea of Merge Coffee Bar was born.

When they're not making amazing coffee they can be found hiking with their dog, Ray, or on the hunt for the best Tex-Mex inspired restaurants in Nashville to satisfy their Texas roots.
