Beer Den Master Host

Summary

I am a semi-retired commercial and architectural photographer who loves baseball. My wife and I were season ticket holders at the old Durham Bulls Ballpark back in the day. I began home grewing beer in 1996 and still enjoy the process so much that I applied for and was hired to host at the Lowe's Food Beer Den in Chapel Hill, NC and find that I enjoy it tremendously. The thought of combining my love of Durham Bulls baseball and serving beer has to be the perfect semi-retirement gig.
