Alex Jump, Director of Operations, Focus on Health
Alex Jump’s idea for FOH was formed through Bombay Sapphire’s Most Imaginative Bartender Competition and shaped from a life-long struggle with anxiety and depression. Sharing her struggle with mental health over the years had opened up a support system for her that she was not aware could exist and has allowed her to realize the importance and need for resources to be available to our industry. Alex is currently a beverage consultant residing in Denver, CO, a Tales of the Cocktail committee member, and is a dog mom to Julep and Lorenzo.
