How long have you been working in the whisky industry?
I’ve now been working in the world of whisky now for about 6 years.

What has been your biggest career highlight to date?


The biggest highlights so far are being named Whisky Advocate
Magazine’s Craft Whisky of the Year. 
I’ve also managed to meet and work with amazing people, ranging from
other whiskey people, to musicians, artists, craftsman, bartenders, chefs, and
more.  Whisky moves across categories
and brings creative people together!

The first dram that I remember was Makers Mark, but the first one I truly
enjoyed, which also floored me was Eagle Rare.

What does whisky mean to you?
To me whisky means friends and family. Whisky is
celebration, whisky is sharing the good
times, whisky is sharing the bad, whisky is art that brings people together!

Where would you like to see yourself in five years’ time?
I’d like to see myself with a great dram of whisky and a
group of friends, celebrating friends’ success!

What was your last dram?
My last dram was Few Bourbon, on the rocks. Tasty!

Do you have a favourite whisky and food pairing combination?
I probably should, but it’s so mood dependent for me. I do love whisky and beef though, bourbon and BBQ are such a natural combination!

What’s your favourite time and place to enjoy a dram?
In front of a fire, with friends.

What do you think is going to be the next big thing on the
whisky horizon?
The next big thing is already here, and that is the
continued rise of craft whisky!

What’s the one dram you couldn’t live without?
Few, of course!
