About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm on a mission! I'm part owner of a small family owned kombucha brewery in Asheville, NC named Buchi (www.drinkbuchi.com) where I do marketing. I'm currently putting together trips to spread our craft kombucha in some of the Whole Foods, Earth Fares, and independent markets where we are sold. (Mainly North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia.) As with most new breweries, almost every penny we make gets invested back into up-scaling the brewery and just staying afloat, hence the couch surfing (which is more fun anyway!) Should I end up staying with you I promise I'll leave some Buchi behind in your fridge!

As for me...

I'm very experiential and love to be exposed to different ideas. I'm quick-witted, empathic, and love to make people laugh. My creative outlet is writing, poetry mostly, but I'm also comfortable copy-writing alliterative marketing materials. The focus of my past year has been stepping more fully into my power so that I can better serve my community...trying to do my part to help bring about the global consciousness shift.

Interests

I love nature, animals, kombucha, Invisible Children, Global Oneness and Sustainability Movements, summer camp, organic and natural foods, working with kids, time with friends, TED Talks, horseback riding, reading, traveling, poetry, late night conversations, road trips, Pad Thai, movies and music, sunsets/clouds in general, stargazing, yoga, and moments of total peace and contentment.
