Today is the 57th birthday of JoAnne Carilli, who is currently the Head Of Business Development at White Labs, a position she’s held for the past few years, though she’s been back at White Labs now for over five years. I first met JoAnne when she was the marketing director for the old Association of Brewers in the late 1990s and she became a good friend. After that, she spent the better part of a decade at White Labs as their Sales & Marketing Director. But she spent a number of years outside the beer industry while raising her son, although we did manage to stay in touch sporadically. I was very pleased to see her back in beer (where she belongs, I’ll argue). Join me in wishing Joanne a very happy birthday.
