Amanda has always had a passion for consumer-facing roles, beginning with her very first job in the food and beverage industry. She continued this role while she achieved her degree in Human Environmental Studies with an emphasis in Family Studies and a minor in Social Work.
She then transitioned into the world of non-profit, where she worked with a variety of demographics over the span of a decade, giving her valuable insight and experience.
As she discovered the world of craft fermentation, she realized this was the perfect intersection of her passions and she found her way back into the food and beverage sector.
She is now a full-time consultant, bringing with her the wisdom of her time across industries, and upholds that her favorite parts of her job are the relationships and watching her clients realize their goals.
You can bet that if Amanda isn't helping you dream up your next big venture or cheering for you on the sidelines, she's probably dreaming of adopting ALL the animals or cheering at a hockey game. In her spare time, she volunteers with the Women's Craft Fermentation Alliance, Women on Tap CIC, Mac's Mission, and Pink Boots Society.
If asked her core beliefs, she would say adamantly that everyone has a story worth telling, every dog is a puppy, and that every business meeting (or any meeting, for that matter) should be done over food and drink, preferably tacos.
