Rachel had owned a renowned yoga studio prior to the pandemic, but the doors closed in March of 2020. A trained sommelier, Rachel sought professional refuge in the alcohol industry, landing in front of famed Texas distiller, Chip Tate, for a job interview as a spirits brand ambassador. She got the job, and his heart in the process.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?When an imminent hostile takeover by investors threatened to force the closure of Chip's namesake distillery, Rachel buckled down to help him find an exit strategy. After months of furious searching, what she found was Foley Family Wines, in search of a Master Distiller to launch their newly-developed spirits program. It was a match made in heaven, and the arduous process proved the strength and trust of their union.
What would you do with $20,000?We would buy a vehicle for our fifteen year old first time driver, Charlotte! She will turn sixteen in January, and will need a set of wheels to take her back and forth to her job as a light board operator at our local community theater.
