DELTONA, Fla. — After more than 20 years shaping young minds in the classroom, beloved educator Michelle is embarking on a bold new journey—one that blends her lifelong passion for coffee with her deep commitment to community. Her new venture, Atomic Express-O, is a retro-modern mobile coffee trailer set to bring handcrafted espresso drinks, fizzy creative sodas, and a whole lot of heart to the streets of Deltona, DeBary, and beyond.
Michelle’s story is one of full-circle inspiration. Before she became a fixture in local education, she was a pioneer in the coffee world, opening Duluth, Minnesota’s first coffeehouse right out of college. That early experience ignited a love for the craft of coffee and the connections it fosters—something she carried with her through every lesson plan, parent-teacher conference, and graduation ceremony.
Now, with Atomic Express-O, Michelle is returning to her first love: brewing up joy one cup at a time. The trailer itself is a visual treat—think vintage charm meets modern flair, with sleek finishes, warm lighting, and a menu that’s as imaginative as it is inviting. From velvety lattes and bold cold brews to sparkling sodas infused with herbs and fruit, every drink is crafted with care and creativity.
But Atomic Express-O isn’t just about coffee—it’s about community. Michelle envisions the trailer as a mobile gathering space, where neighbors can connect over conversation, creativity, and caffeine. Whether parked at a local farmers market, school event, or neighborhood block party, Atomic Express-O aims to be a welcoming presence wherever it goes.
“We’re almost ready to roll,” Michelle announced in a heartfelt message to her neighbors. “I’m so excited to finally share my new adventure with you!”
The buzz is already building. Locals are encouraged to follow Atomic Express-O on social media for launch updates, pop-up locations, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into Michelle’s journey from educator to entrepreneur. With its blend of nostalgia, innovation, and genuine warmth, Atomic Express-O is poised to become more than just a coffee stop—it’s a movement fueled by passion, purpose, and a perfectly pulled shot of espresso.
