Having provided comprehensive business solutions for clients in various industries for more than a decade, I have identified an opportunity to blend my passion for, and extensive knowledge of, wine with my consulting, client service, and operational effectiveness expertise. Trained and certified by the Italian Sommelier Association (AIS), my expertise lies in Italian wines, namely Tuscan producers, though I have a thorough understanding of all wine varietals. As a result of my business background, I am a collaborative leader with exceptional project management, relationship building, interpersonal and influencing skills and am equipped to uniquely leverage these cross-functional competencies as I build my career in the wine industry here in the US
