WHOSE BEHIND THE BAR?

Well Hello!

My name is Kyla - the heart behind Bar Ventures + Co.! I founded this business in the heat of the pandemic, driven by a desire to serve my rural community and support my growing family. Born and raised in Clallam County, I’m proud to call this beautiful corner of the country my home. The PNW holds so much inspiration everywhere you look and we continue to grow in popularity because of our exquisite bounty of adventure, nature and easy-going lifestyles.

Outside of work, you’ll find me spending time with my husband, a local contractor, and our three beautiful children—my oldest daughter, born in 2020, and our twins, who arrived in 2022! It’s been a real whirlwind!

I come from and embody a family full of entrepreneurial spirit, always looking for ways to grow, learn, and support each other.

I love to travel, read, and cook—passions that inspire my work behind the bar. My journey into mixology began in my own kitchen, where I honed my craft through creativity, research, and a lot of experimentation with different ingredients, liquors, techniques, and pairings. Sounds pretty fun huh?

I have no formal training—just the instincts I’ve developed over time and the invaluable feedback from my amazing clients. I’m here to create unforgettable moments, one drink at a time, with a personal touch you won’t find anywhere else.
