Matt McNeil
Co-Founder, Clouds Brewing
“I walked into Durham last Friday night and couldn’t believe it… I saw smiles. People helping each other. Employees greeting each other like teammates, experimenting with faster ways to work, guests enjoying themselves, staff actually having fun. It felt like a jail before. Now? It feels alive.”
