Prior to founding the company in 2009, he worked in Business Development with Modis, an IT Staffing firm. He was responsible for building the Baltimore Metro market for the company.

Scott grew up in Winchester, Virginia, the heart of the scenic Shenandoah Valley. He’s an avid cyclist, outdoorsman, and lover all things craft beer. While harnessing his appreciation for craft beer in his early 20’s, he received a Marketing Degree from Longwood University. In a previous (business) life, Scott worked with a Virginia based Homebuilder where he gained an extensive knowledge in Sales Management, Strategic Marketing, Purchasing / Estimating, and Business Development. In 2008 and in need of a change of scenery, he packed up his possessions and made the move from Virginia to San Diego where he started a Tourism-based small business in San Diego’s Historic Gaslamp Quarter. That business is cranking along and allowing Scott to take on his next big project. Scott currently resides in San Diego with his wife Serra, and their two young boys, Ty & Colin.
Ed hails from the great state of Connecticut, growing up not too far from the birthplace of PT Barnum, which could explain his affinity for sales, marketing and being an all around Showman. Despite being born in North Carolina and growing up in “southern Connecticut” (yes that’s a thing) Ed headed north for college to the frigid but beautiful University of Vermont, where he enjoyed creating volatile organic compounds as he earned his degree in chemistry. Graduating unscathed, he decided to play it safe, stay away from the chem lab and take a job at an Internet start-up in Boston. Thus started his long career growing sales at innovative tech companies, from heading up sales & marketing at boot-strapped start-ups to those with $200mm in series A funding. Today he resides in Santa Monica, CA, where he enjoys getting out to the ocean and the mountains, and exploring Hollywood filming locations.
Oliver grew up in the Northern Suburbs of Chicago (picture “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”). He went on to study at Miami University in Ohio, which is the first “Miami”, since Florida belonged to Spain when the school was founded. After college, he managed restaurants for Lettuce Entertain You, Inc. in Chicago. Seeking to fulfill an itch to live abroad and learn a new language, he joined the Peace Corps, serving in Nicaragua as a high school business teacher as well as helping small businesses and building schools in rural villages. Returning to the US in the depth of a recession, he joined a small medical software company, Intelligent Medical Objects. What started as a contract position lead to a full-time Sales Executive role. Over the next 7 years, the company grew from $4M/ year in revenue to $50M/ year. As the company was in the process of being sold, he took this opportunity to take a year off and travel through Asia. Travel, photography, family, friends, and food are all passions of his. His passion for all things Miami lead him back to the US, where he now calls Miami, Florida (the second Miami) home. He joined PourMyBeer as a Regional Sales Director and covers the Southeast/Northeast and Midwest. At his core, Oliver is an educator. He educated children and adults in Nicaragua the same way he educates prospective customers on the benefits of our hardware/software. Using past experiences and being open to new ideas helps to power a company forward.

Táňa, a daughter of a pub owner, was born and raised in the Czech Republic, the country with the highest beer consumption per capita in the World. This gives her a unique understanding and appreciation for what goes into running a successful Pub as well as mature understanding of the different styles of beers. Táňa has lived in the U.S. for the past seven years, but spent the first five exploring and hiking the Pacific Northwest, where she focused on becoming a digital marketing ninja while studying at Bellevue College. While earning her degree she also competed in marketing competitions that resulted in her team being crowned National Champs. While in college, she worked as a bartender, event manager and even quality assurance tester at Microsoft. When she’s not creating digital magic at PourMyBeer, she enjoys traveling, dancing, yoga and reading (Not all at the same time, but that does sound fun to try). She moved to Chicago a couple years ago and made tons of furry friends all around the city by dog sitting, fostering and volunteering at a local animal shelter. She’s also fluent in 5 languages – Czech, English, Slovak, Polish & Spanish.
Josue, nicknamed Sway by his fellow team members, is the proud owner of Pennsylvania’s first self-pour taproom and restaurant, Beer Wall on Penn. When he discovered PourMyBeer’s self-pour technology in early 2018, he quickly realized his new dream was to open up his own self-pour bar which came to fruition in the Spring of 2019. In fact, it was so well received that he’s set to open his second self-pour location, Beer Wall on Prince in downtown Lancaster. Originally from Newark, N.J. and raised in Reading, P.A., Josue received his degree in Business Administration from Albright College and prior to joining the PourMyBeer team, he spent 7 years with Penske working in Corporate Sales. He earned Victory Lanes Sales Excellence in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2018. Just like majority of PourMyBeer family, Josue is an avid lover of craft beers and technology. He spends his days driving sales in the Northeast region, while delivering a one of a kind experience with his own self-pour taprooms. He currently resides in Reading , P.A. with his wife Valerie and two Bengal cats, Mila and Minxy. Meow!
Monty Heath spent the first chunk of his adult life as a Navy SEAL. After a successful career, he was honorably discharged and decided to start a family. During that time, Monty used his unique skillset and experience in the defense contracting industry. He’s driven excessively expensive cars, (Maybach anyone?) and has traveled around the world in style, all while providing executive protection to grumpy billionaires (sorry, not sorry). He has dabbled in, and continues to perform public speaking gigs; which, to some, are scarier than being shot at. He helps veterans through numerous non-profits: Higher Ground and VetToCEO are two of his favorites. Moving in a (hopefully) less stressful and more fun direction, Monty decided to join the PourMyBeer team as our Director of Military Partnerships. Why? He’d like to help business owners cut their costs of goods sold, and help customers, particularly active military beer-lovers, acquire their beverages more quickly and efficiently.
Representing the Greek contingent on our team, William is the product of an entrepreneurial family that are proud owners of the Metro Bowl for over 61 years and counting. Another fun fact about William is that he and his wife Suzy spent a good portion of the ’90s booked for Wedding entertainment and DJ services. After he retired the turntable, he spent the next 3 decades in retail and manufacturing sales. He co-developed an inkjet refilling machine which he marketed and sold to the largest drugstore chain in the United States with sales exceeding $180 million. His knowledge and expertise of the self-pour space can be tied to his invention of the SmartBar, the world’s first totally automated self-contained bar.

Through that company, she met Josh and jumped at the chance to join his team in 2017. Cathy has two children and three grandchildren. If you ask Cathy where her favorite to do is, she will surely say spending time and making memories with her family.
