Blogging website Porchdrinking.com interviewed NC Brewmaster and Brewery Operations Management program alumnus Iz (Isabelle) Netto about her work as a R&D Biologist at Escarpment Laboratories in Guelph. Netto graduated from NC in the spring of 2017 and was hired with Escarpment Laboratories within three months. In her role, she conducts research on yeast for craft brewers. Netto describes her work as the perfect “mix of lab bench work and data analysis.” Netto explains that this type of research was typically only done for big macro brewers but is now being helping smaller brewers craft their yeast strains to refine their products. She notes that education and work experience are the basis for a strong career. Finally, Netto cites the importance of supporting women and women of colour in the brewing industry.
