What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a brewery operations or leadership role where I can lead teams, improve processes, and ensure consistent quality in a collaborative craft-beer environment.

I lead brewery operations with hands-on supervision of brewing, cellar, filtration, and co-packing production environments.

As a brewmaster and brewing supervisor I've directed licensing, construction, facility design, recipe development and day-to-day production for small-batch and large regional breweries, including automated co-packing facilities. I develop and train cross-functional teams to meet quality, safety, and performance standards while overseeing special projects and quality assurance.

I'm skilled with ProLeiT Brewmaxx, WonderWare, FactoryTalk, Microsoft Office and Adobe Suite, and I bring strong communication and multilingual abilities to collaborative brewery leadership.
