PCA Magazine Summer 2022

News + Notes cont. Meet the PCA Staff Where did you grow up and where did you attend school? I grew up outside Denver, Colorado and loved living in the mountains. My high school years were spent in south Florida. I went to college at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, and got a Master’s degree from American University in Washington, DC. What was your first cigar? My first cigar was a La Flor Dominicana that my abuelo handed to me, although I’ll be honest that I didn’t know enough to remember what it was exactly. I love trying new cigars as I am a relative novice to cigars! What book do you recommend? One of my favorite books is The Feast of the Goat / La Fiesta del Chivo by Mario Vargas Llosa. It is an insightful portrayal of the Trujillo dictatorship and how it impacted the Dominican Republic. Do you live by any piece of advice or motto? “Live fearlessly!”While it’s hard to remember sometimes in the moment when fear is all-encompassing, it’s a motto I do my best to live by. What part of your job at PCA do you like the most? What I love most about working at the PCA is the community of people in this industry. It is like having one big family!
