I have been in the wine and hospitality field for 10 years. I am a certified sommelier with the Court of Master Sommeliers as well as a Certified Specialist of Wine with the Society of Wine Educators. I have also passed the advanced level of the Wine and Spirits Education Trust and am currently at work on the Diploma level. I have presented hundreds of successful educational and fun tastings and hope you will consider me for your next event. I lead tastings from small intimate groups up to large corporate meetings of over 100 people. My rate varies depending on the amount of preparation and the length of the tasting. Please e-mail me if you have any questions!

I am a certified sommelier and past wine buyer for Houston Wine Merchant. I conduct wine tastings and seminars in homes, restaurants and at businesses for groups of all sizes. I have a laid-back, but well informed speaking style that makes both novices and oenophiles comfortable. I write a weekly e-mail/blog for friends and customers about wine and trends I see in the market. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. Cheers!
