Jasmin Ryan
A graduate of design, I left little kiwi land and embarked on a journey to the USA. I worked as a graphic designer and also in bars in San Francisco before I began a remarkable adventure aboard luxury super yachts. This is where I fell head over heels in love with the art of cocktail crafting and the incredible tales of spirits.
To grow my knowledge, I competed in many cocktail competitions and made my way up to earning a spot on the global stage for World Class, proving that mixology runs in my veins.
After sailing many oceans, my journey led me to become a global brand ambassador based in Europe and the USA, before finally returning to my roots in New Zealand. Back in Aotearoa I helped launch Seedlip, the trailblazing non-alcoholic spirit, bringing a new wave of drinking to the Southern Hemisphere.
Now firmly anchored on the chill Hibiscus Coast, you'll find me at Studio Rūma – a versatile haven where creativity flourishes. From crafting cocktails to indulging in a range of creative activities, I believe in learning and growing and creating whenever possible.
My toast is to a life that's a perfect balance of family, creativity, and raising our glasses to the joy of living!
