Just a small town boy that moved to New York and it changed my life. After graduating, I worked five years in the accounting field that sent me all over to the least exciting of places. I needed a change and found my salvation in wine. I went back to school, saw the best the U.S. and Europe could show me, and put my passion into how we enjoy ourselves. I have been fortunate enough to work with some amazing people at Ridge Vineyards, Montes Wines, Starwood Hotels, Credit Suisse, and PwC. I currently manage two departments for a gourmet retailer. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility I have to share my experiences and hear new opinions everyday. The best part is that what I love is what I do.
