Meet JC, a globetrotting hotel designer with a taste for luxury, passion for wellness and love of tequila. A California native with family roots in Mexico’s tequila heartland, JC’s style is as international as her travels. From Hong Kong to Singapore to London, she’s sprinkled her elegant touch on hotels across the globe including iconic properties such as Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, and various luxury hotels and resports across the APAC region. After completing an MSc. in Real Estate Investment and Finance from Oxford Brookes University in the UK, life tossed her a tequila twist. Following the loss of her father in 2020, JC returned to her Mexican roots. This journey of grief and sorrow brought about a cultural reconnection with her father’s native land of Mexico and the tequila region where her father’s family has lived for generations. This reconnection ignited a passion project—a tribute to her father and her Mexican heritage. Raised to be an independent, strong woman, she’s now shaking up the spirits industry with a tequila made by women, for women. Combining her love for wellness, art, the empowerment of women and of course, tequila. JC is set to pour an ESG-focused craft tequila into the glasses of discerning drinkers. If you have a taste for the finer things in life, get ready to raise a glass of Ladydragón Craft Tequila. JC’s commitment to excellence is evident in every detail, from the artisanal production process of a craft tequila to the sustainable merchandise line made from Agave Fiber. She collaborates with Mexican artisan women, supporting their craftsmanship and bringing their hand-woven crafts to a global audience. This initiative not only showcases the beauty of Mexican culture but also empowers women economically, creating a ripple effect of positive change.
