ABOUT ME

IMG_9506.jpg

I have been working in food and beverage for over 20 years, but my love and passion for wine and hospitality truly started while working as a server in San Francisco in 2013 where I completed my WSET Level 2. I have since pursued my Level 3 along with my Italian Wine Scholar certification in Tuscany, Italy. Throughout my career I have run the beverage program for groundbreaking restaurants such as James Beard nominated Macchialina in Miami and have had the privilege of being the Head Sommelier for Thomas Keller at Bouchon in Napa, California. My bar experience includes honky tonks, jazz clubs, tiki and craft cocktail bars. My restaurant experience includes homestyle southern, Italian, French, Caribbean and casual American. At the moment I am the Wine Director at a progressive steakhouse with the first progressive wine program of its kind in the state of Montana. Because of this I have been recognized by my industry peers with a 2025 Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence and have had the opportunity to attend exclusive events such as Oregon Pinot Camp, West Sonoma Coast Farm Camp, and WW2U. Furthermore, I was also considered as one of Bozeman’s most inspiring women in 2024 by Bozeman City Lifestyle Magazine. I am an ambitious go getter with a passion for learning and a talent for creating and developing visions. I genuinely love hospitality and believe that being a sommelier is one of the greatest acts of hospitality and an added luxury to any experience.
