new handle, same human.

Hi friends- I'm now @candidbydefault

Because most of what I share is how I see things: honest, curious, and unfiltered in the best way. Nothing's changed except the label– still here for real moments, good lighting, random thoughts, tasty drinks, and all the little parts of life worth noticing.

Today marks the end of my journey with Empirical Spirits. 

It's been a wild three years that I am so very grateful for. While I was with Empirical, we released 5 Spirits(Doritos, Cilantro, Frederick, Stonefruit, and Olive, 6 if you count Ezzo Supreme). 

I met and had the opportunity to work with so many incredible people and bars, countless pop ups and events, BCB x3, Tales, and a staggering amount for cocktails were consumed. 

I cannot thank the Empirical team enough for all their support through the years, especially those that have been with me the whole journey, @whiskeyanddreams @rodrigonincao @james.preciado.sutter and @lars_williams who are all incredible humans. We went from just a few reps, and opening a distillery stateside, to having ambassadors all across the country.

Though I won't be working with Empirical anymore, the team and the brand will forever have my heart. And yes, my entire collection will be going with me to Canada.

Thanks for all the amazing adventures, laughs, and cocktails. See you on the other side. taken in New York, New York by @candidbydefault
