About

I've been part of the beer industry for about 9 years now, including roles of taproom manager, Brewer, and now Lead Brewer. I love working with numbers and have a knack for anything to do with data. I work very well with any type of co-worker or manager. I've been described as a hard worker and someone that others lean on and look towards for answers.
