## Caption

The summer Audrey Finocchiaro graduated from Marymount Manhattan College in 2016, she moved back home to Rhode Island and started working in restaurants with her boyfriend, Sam. She also took on a part-time job tracking a social-media account late at night.

They had a limited budget and always talked about how restaurant jobs can come with unnecessary negative management. 

Sick of being poorly treated in restaurants, Finocchiaro and her boyfriend wanted to start something of their own. They kept their jobs, but in their off time, the pair decided to build a coffee cart.

That coffee cart turned into The Nitro Bar, a coffee business that is soon expanding to five locations. Finocchiaro and her boyfriend started with a maxed-out $1,500 credit card balance, made seven figures in revenue last year, and are on track to make eight figures this year.

Read more about how they built The Nitro Bar at the link in our bio.
