Legacy is built a generation at a time.

But what do you do when your life milestones are punctuated more by tragedy and loss than celebration?

I lost both of my parents before I was old enough to build a real plan for my future. For a long time, life was about simply figuring things out one step at a time.

Years later, life looks very different. Our home is full, our kids are thriving, and the future feels full of possibility. Through it all, my partner Hayley has been my greatest support—believing in this vision and standing beside me as we work to build something meaningful for our family.

That vision is Hoefler House Bartending Co.

What started as a passion for hospitality, craft cocktails, and creating great experiences has grown into something much bigger: an opportunity to build a business that supports our family, serves our community, and creates memorable moments for the people we’re lucky enough to work with.

Starting something real takes resources, equipment, and time. This campaign is meant to help us take the next step in building Hoefler House into the business we know it can become.

So I have a simple ask.

If I’ve ever served you a drink, shared a story with you across the bar, had a conversation, or simply made you laugh for a moment—would you consider supporting what we’re building?

Your support helps us grow Hoefler House, expand our ability to serve events and our community, and most importantly, build a legacy our kids can carry forward into the next generation.

Whether that support comes through a contribution or simply sharing this campaign, it means the world to us.

Thank you for being part of the story.
