After spending years in the operations and event side of the hospitality world, Averee helped start and curate a hospitality management program at a local college in Chattanooga, TN. She also played a part in opening restaurants, a hotel, and a brewery, and has since relocated to Colorado where her husband is stationed. She has found herself affectionately named BB Brewer (AKA mash tun cleaner) at a newly opened brewery in Colorado Springs, before moving on to work as the Event & Media Marketing Director at Goat Patch Brewing Co. After spending summers in Yakima Valley in her home state of Washington, she has cultivated a love of IPA’s and is developing a taste for anything sour. You can find her in a brewery, on an adventure with her dog Finn, tending to her urban jungle of a home, or exploring a local vintage store.
