Kimberlee’s smile can be seen bouncing around Jettywave Distillery before you even park your car. Her infectious excitement about this special place fosters the genuine care you feel from each of our staff members. She oversees all aspects of our business; from The Swell Lounge, to The Slab Bar, Local’s Nights, to private corporate events.

​Her degree is in Hospitality and Tourism Management, with an emphasis in Food and Beverage Event Management. Once she completed her studies and graduated Summa Cum Laude, she moved across the ocean to our coastal town to work at The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay. She brings the elan of Ritz-Carlton's mantra, 'Ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen.' Her influence in all parts of the business is why you may hear her title change with her different hats; Event Manager, Mixologist, Marketing Director, or anything else in between, she’s sure to be involved in it.

The human Tasmanian Devil embodiment. She drove Jettywave from concept to launch in five short months, all while teaching spin, and while operating California Relocation Network, continuing her ranking as one of the top 100 realtors in the US. Mishelle runs Miramar Beach with surfdogs Bondi and Jetty, and can whip up hosting a party with 45-min notice. She is married to her love David, who is a Stanford Research Institute entrepreneur, co-founding a food-intelligence company Passio. David is a Jettywave board member, and regularly surfs Mavericks. If you can catch Mish, ask her why she says Betty instead of profanity. Usually.
