I'm originally from Virginia in the United States, but have decided to take a break from life there for some time on the road in New Zealand. I am a brewer by trade and am passionate about my craft and love learning about the beer culture in New Zealand. I hope to use my time here to put together a plan to start something of my own upon my return.
