Episode 1: "Podemos y Lo Hicimos" w/ Adrian Mendez

Adrian Mendez has worn, and continues to wear, many hats on a day to day basis. He is also by no means a stranger to the game, as his track record for moving the needle and setting things in motion speaks for itself. Throughout his career, he has created impact across every industry you can think of: education, consulting, hospitality, entrepreneurship ... you name it, he did it. More captivating than the multiple lives he juggles regularly is the story that brought him here (here being a multi-entendre referring to New Orleans, the Food and Beverage industry, this point of success he's reached, etc.) I sat down with Adrian for a discussion recorded live during a special event held at Mr. Wolf Espresso and Bookstore in the CBD to learn more about his never-ending support for his communities and his story of resilience, passion, optimism, and determination.
