“I had the pleasure of having Gloria as part of my brewery team here in Miami, Florida. Her knowledge of beer styles and the brewing process was an incredible asset to the team and was second only to her always positive attitude. She is an amazing person with an internal drive and passion to share her knowledge with others. Her extensive involvement in the beer industry, in multiple states, from organizations to teaching is a reflection of her care for the industry as a whole. I cannot recommend her educational program enough and have already begun encouraging my staff to pursue it fully. ”

“I am so happy that I signed up for the Crafted Minds Beer Basics course with Gloria. I found her lessons and approach to be extremely accessible and well planned, and I would recommend these programs to anyone interested in beer. She is clearly very knowledgeable, and I was impressed with the subjects we were able to cover in our course time frame. Even though our entire course was taught online, Gloria was great at engaging with all attendees, making it a fun and shared experience. These courses would be perfect for anyone whether they are new to the beer world, already a professional, or somewhere in between. I already intend to sign up for the next Advanced Beer Course, and can’t wait to expand my beer knowledge further.”

“Gloria’s vast knowledge about beer and the industry itself combined with her friendly, positive, and all-inclusive attitude is the perfect combination to gaining a complete education through Crafted Minds. I have experienced her work in action over the years as the founder of Syracuse Women of Craft Beer. She is dedicated, approachable, and always seeks to create fun, inventive learning opportunities for those who have the privilege of working with her. I have also sought her guidance, education, and mentorship in my own professional endeavors as craft beer columnist at Table Hopping Magazine. I have no doubt that anyone who obtains the education that Gloria provides through her coursework will be successful in expanding their knowledge and know-how whether it be for a hobby or on a professional level. ”
