When he sees a mail carrier or healthcare worker walking by, he offers his services.
The barista says he has the location and the resources to make it happen.
"I've always wanted to do something out of this window," Ramirez said. "You know we have this nice small street where everyone knows each other."

"Keep my distance from people with this little guy... It's how I deliver coffee to people... With this little arm that I stole from my son," he says, holding the toy hand.
Ramirez says he had the supplies because he's an aspiring coffee house owner and has been taking classes.
He saw an opportunity to get some practice, and give out much-needed "pick-me-ups" when cafes had to close.
