Here we go...(I'm going to be a beer lawyer)

Now that we've made it through the holiday season, and have officially jumped headlong into 2012, I have a little something I'd like to share....starting Monday, January 9, I will no longer be an attorney with Armstrong Teasdale LLP. 

While I will miss the many friends I've made at Armstrong over the last decade, I'm very excited to announce that I have accepted a position as Associate General Counsel at Anheuser Busch-InBev and starting next Monday I will officially be a "Beer lawyer." 

In this new position I will be able to meld my interests for antitrust, advertising, marketing, distribution, social media, government relations....and beer, into one position that seems as if the job description was written specifically for everything that I love about my work. While leaving Armstrong Teasdale was not something I ever expected to do, the opportunity presented by this position, and this incredible company, is one which in many respects seems almost too good to be true and I'm very much looking forward to starting this new chapter in my career.

I want to take a second to thank all my friends at Armstrong Teasdale, the many clients that I've worked with over the years, and all the friends I've met in the social media world...without the experience that I was able to gain through our work together this never would have been possible.  Next time you see me out, the first Budweiser is on me...Here we go.
