About Joe Cullen

About Me: I have a passion for the Alcohol business. Originally starting with Wine back in 2012 I fell in love pretty hard with the fascinating products this world had to offer. I moved to London to learn more about the products I loved and get some international experience understanding the world of beverage alcohol. One thing I always loved while living there was going to the London Wine/spirit shows. Those events were so informative and exciting. Trying things I would never have the opportunity to try normally and talk to people from all around the world. That said probably my absolute favorite was the Canadian wine show at the consulate. There is where I got to see the really cool and innovative stuff Canada is promoting and more importantly (to myself) Nova Scotia. I moved home to bring my expertise and experience to a market I love. I am a major supporter of Nova Scotian goods and love the new and fun things that are coming out. I am also a very nerdy person and quite vocal about my passions when prompted. I believe in kindness and empathy and treating the people around myself with respect. I believe in lifting people up and showcasing their strengths rather than focusing on the negative. It is very important to myself that the people around me feel comfortable and free to work and live the way they feel best. I believe there is strength in uniqueness and various points of views there is never one way to do something.
