I am currently an Assistant Distiller at two distilleries in Portland: a leading craft distillery producing multiple mainstream spirits categories, and a producer of fruit brandies, liqueurs, and whiskey. Between these two roles I have a broad range of skills covering the entire distillation process; including recipe creation, mash production, fermentation, distillation, barreling, bottling and tasting room sales, and also cleaning, cleaning, and cleaning.
I’m looking for a new position with room for growth. Though I’m most experienced with distilling, I also love beer and brewing. My interests are far-reaching, and I’m particularly keen on collaborative projects with other local producers, agriculturally-focused sourcing, and quality-oriented production. I’m willing to do a virtually unlimited amount of hard, tedious labor (see: making fruit brandy), but I’m really seeking learning opportunities. In other words, I’m not interested in a full-time bottling gig if there are no development opportunities to go along with it.
I also have a background in accounting and finance, and though I’ve left the corporate world behind I retain a deep-seated enthusiasm for crushing Excel spreadsheets and budget analysis. I’m also pretty well versed on lean manufacturing and management techniques in the industrial setting.
I have an open mind about what kind of position would be a good fit. Part-time work would be ok, and so would a position outside the Portland metropolitan area (but within driving distance). If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and focused person to lead or support a beer, spirits, or winemaking operation, get in touch. I’d love to hear from you and talk about how I can help.
