SUMMARY
I am a 23 year old college student with experience working in the restaurant and
catering business. I am passionate about craft beers and have dabbled in brewing my
own on a small scale. I am eager to expand my work experience in providing quality
service within the beer and vintage industries in order to progress towards my eventual
goal of working for a vintner in Sonoma, California.
