In addition to traveling (pre and hopefully post Covid) all over North America to present to and inform innovation pipelines for Imbibe’s customers, she has presented on consumer behavior and demand and beverage trends at several conferences, including Flavorcon and the National Restaurant Association Annual Show. In her spare time, you may find her contributing Yelp reviews to maintain her elite status, practicing guitar, or researching her next travel destination.
