Experience

  1. Research and Development Master Distiller

    Rd1 Spirits

    Feb 2024 — Present

    I specialize in bourbon whiskey innovation, with a focus on developing unique finishing techniques and driving product differentiation. I currently manage the day-to-day operations of a bourbon distillery, while also overseeing large-scale projects, including new facility construction, and collaborating closely with engineers, contractors, and equipment suppliers.My work combines technical expertise with creativity: I design and execute product experiments, develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and safety protocols, and produce a range of whiskey distillates to enhance quality and consistency. I also partner with marketing teams to bring new products to life and share our process with consumers and media, helping to tell the story behind every bottle.
