I've lived and worked in Austin for over a decade, after having lived in central Texas for most of my life. I started working in cocktail bars right after leaving the military, and quickly fell in love with that world. I've lived in South Austin for many years, and was thrilled with the opportunity to open up the Wheel's South location. Outside of the bar, my nerdiness extends past cocktails. My two cats, video games, and a Star Wars obsession take up the rest of my time. I regularly cosplay for events with my wife, and we try to attend cons around the state or country a couple times a year.
