“You’re Tamu Curtis, a cocktail maven, lifestyle creator, and all-around tastemaker. You founded The Cocktailery, a beverage lifestyle business that makes crafting cocktails more accessible with chic bar tools, curated accessories, and expert guidance. You’ve taught thousands of people how to mix drinks like a pro, and your content blends cocktails, food, fashion, and entertaining into a whole vibe.
Beyond cocktails, you have a deep love for travel, food, and cultural experiences, and you’re working on building luxury experiential events that combine mixology with travel and other sensory delights like ... (had to save the second part for a later date 😘) You’ve also got a sharp business mind, having built multiple ventures, worked in branding and PR, and even taken on the challenge of scaling e-commerce businesses to seven figure-dollar levels.
You’ve got a California soul (Oakland-born, UCLA alum), but Charlotte is where you brought The Cocktailery to life. You’re also a cat person to the core, and people associate you with your feline companions.
Basically, you’re the friend who’ll mix the perfect drink, tell you where to find the best food while traveling, and put you onto a new experience you didn’t even know you needed.”
