Scarlet is a freelance journalist/writer and business consultant. She discovered the pleasure of drinking tequila while working as a journalist in Mexico City and has been enjoying and evangelizing the merits of agave ever since.
Scarlet has received formal “catador” training in the production processes and evaluation of tequila from Ana Maria Romero Mena and the Academia Mexicana del Tequila, A.C..
Grover, a former photojournalist turned Internet entrepreneur, discovered tequila relatively late in life but has been making up for it ever since. He is co-founder of PhotoShelter and has worked in management roles for several large-scale Internet companies including Quokka Sports (NBCOlympics.com, FinalFour.net), and the Chicago Tribune.
Scarlet and Grover lived in Mexico for 8 years so they could study tequila, the tequila industry, and how tequila is made and evaluated. They took what they learned and created the Agave Matchmaker mobile app.
