Hanni Gould
Chief Operations Officer
Hi, my name is Hanni and I oversee all aspects of operations and marketing for Culinary Infusion, our parent company. I’m so lucky to be a part of my family’s business and have been onboard since 2012. I oversaw our first venue, Circa on Seventh, prior to opening The Covenant. And now with more growth ahead, I’ve moved into the role of Chief Operations Officer —- overseeing all areas for Culinary Infusion.
What you should know about me? I have mono mono identical twin girls (Molly and Gwen), I could live on soup (any flavor, any day!), and I’m definitely a podcast self-growth junkie — Rachel Hollis is my jam!
Kelsey Brunner
Venue Director
Hi there! I’m Kelsey, Venue Director at Circa on Seventh. I am the one behind the overall operations of Circa, working with our incredible Circa team to execute every event seamlessly. My favorite part of a wedding is once the festivities have settled and dancing is underway, taking a moment to watch the celebration. Often catching the groom glancing down at his new ring with the slightest of grins on his face and excitement in his eyes, or the parents watching their newly married children from across the room, eyes welling with pride. There is no feeling quite like being a part of a wedding day!
When I’m not at Circa (my second home), I’m at my 1950s fixer-upper home working on a renovation project or refinishing one of my many flea market finds. I’ve been known to have a few too many projects going on at one time — Sitting still is definitely not one of my strong suits!
Kelsey Tover
Event Specialist
Hi there, I’m Kelsey, one of the Event Specialists here at Circa on Seventh. I’ve always had a passion for working with others, which made the transition from recruiting into event planning so seamless. I have the opportunity to work with amazing couples, understand their vision for their wedding day, and have a hand in making that vision become a reality. It really is as fun (and rewarding) as it sounds!
Outside of being an Event Specialist, I’m also a dog-mom to a three-year-old Poochon named Mickey. On any given Saturday morning, you can find us exploring the lakefront, enjoying a coffee at a local café, or taking advantage of the many photo-ops downtown Kenosha has to offer!
Hannah Sorensen
Associate Coordinator
My name is Hannah, and I am one of the Associate Coordinators for Culinary Infusion. I have been a part of the Culinary Infusion Team since 2013, which believe it or not, was my freshman year of high school!! My favorite part about working events is being a part of some of the most memorable moments of people’s lives; from weddings to baby and bridal showers, I love being able to witness all of these joyous and amazing moments. (And I love seeing all of the different centerpieces at weddings!).
When I’m not studying for my nursing degree at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, you’ll most likely find me feasting on Okiedoke popcorn or sipping on coffee.
Steve Mack
Executive Chef
My name is Steve and I am an Executive Chef with Culinary Infusion. After years of working with the team on my weekends off from my job in IT, I decided to make this my full-time gig! I’m able to utilize my degree in accounting by crunching numbers and handling all accounting-related job duties for Culinary Infusion during the day, and by night you can find me prepping food and carving tenderloin as the chef.
After the food has been served and the kitchen is clean, I love to take a minute and soak in the celebration. We are just one small part of one of the most important days of a couple’s lives, and that’s a feeling I enjoy embracing every weekend.
Aaron Gould
Executive Chef
I’m Aaron —- an Executive Chef with Culinary Infusion. My passion for cooking has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. After attending culinary school, I honed my kitchen skills and am now continuously creating new and trending dishes for all of our Culinary Infusion menus.
Your wedding day should be perfectly you. And with that, it should stand out to your guests as one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to. By creating a fresh, delicious take on “comfort food” you will be hearing “that’s one of the best meals I’ve ever had” for years to come!
