Behind the Woman

By Dana Darley Daily Photos by Madeline Mullenbach Jewelry provided by Davis Jewelers The VOICE team was fortunate to spend time with Fawn Weaver of Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey. Weaver’s most contagious laugh and genuine smile immediately make you feel energized and encouraged. We dove behind the woman to find out what fuels her positivity, motivation and success. In addition to the work she is doing at the distillery to set up generations of successful leaders, she is working diligently to set up success for females and people of color in business through her philanthropic efforts with the Nearest Green Foundation/Nearest Green Legacy Scholarship. It’s safe to say she’s crushing goals and well on her way to leaving her own legacy.
