I'm a New York City based Sommelier with a passion for the wines of Spain, Germany and the US, sparkling wines, and wines made by women. I'm looking forward to sharing those passions with you!

I hold certifications from CMS, WSET and the Sake School of America who loves sharing my knowledge of wine, spirits, saké and specialty foods with others. There’s a story in every bite or glass and I love sharing those stories with others. My experience includes freelance tasting for corporate and private audiences as well as teaching at Murray’s Cheese in the West Village.

I'm a former investment banker who is now a Certified Sommelier, Educator, and Retail Consultant.  I moved into wine full time after falling in love with the nerdy aspects - the different soils and the way the sunlight hits the vines.  My passion in teaching - helping people express what they like and what they don't like in wines, and watching people have that "a-ha" moment when they learn something new or discover a new favorite wine!

I am a highly detail-oriented Beverage Manager fully trained in the art of mixology. Bartending is my trade. As one of the oldest and most exciting professions, tending bar for me has been an adventure and still is every time I step behind the bar. My career as a bartender has allowed me to experience things, places and different types of people that no other job could ever do in quite the same way. Bartending at major casinos, 4-star restaurants, nightclubs & country clubs have been a way of life for me and my peers. Flipping bottles, serving daiquiris at pools is pretty cool! Ask yourself this;     "Did they ever make a movie about what you do for a living?"
