We have a returning guest this morning, Ed Lynch, Founder of Mychal’s Learning Place and first-time guest, Blaisdell Shaw, Program Manager and Manager of Mykie’s Coffee and Bakery Food Truck.

Ed Lynch founded Mychal’s Learning Place in 2001 in honor of his daughter, Mychal. At the age of two it became apparent that she was developmentally and physically disabled. Mychal passed away at the young age of 7 1/2. As a result, Ed has dedicated his life to creating programs that enable youth and adults with developmental disabilities to live independent, fulfilled and productive lives.

Blaisdell Shaw was hired at Mychal’s Learning Place in November 2015 as Project Manager for Mykie’s, a coffee, bakery and catering business with the primary purpose of providing job training and employment opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities. Blaisdell has many years of restaurant and kitchen management experience. She was a barista and barista trainer at various coffee shops, and has experience working with individuals with disabilities, which made her a good fit for the organization.

This morning, we’re going to learn about the various programs Mychal’s Learning Place offers and the brand new Mykie’s Coffee and Bakery Food Truck, which just opened for business with a Grand Opening celebration last week.
