If you need someone who is a hard worker, personable, and has well rounded experience, just send me a message. I am willing to work in WA, OR, FL, or CA. I have my own startup brewery but am an industry supporter all the way. Right now I am living in Santa Rosa, CA. I will be moving back to Kent, WA in a week.
