Biology/Chemistry Background Seeking Entry-Level Brewer or QC Position
- Anywhere, United States
- August 2, 2016
My academic background heavy in biology, chemistry, and engineering reveals a high aptitude for learning the scientific processes behind brewing beer. What I currently lack in formal experience I will make up for wholeheartedly in my work ethic and my unparalleled desire to learn about brewing and the beer industry. I am currently seeking an employer that is willing to train an entry-level employee, and in the meantime I have been both homebrewing and studying the microbiology and chemistry behind the brewing process.
