The What & Why

Writing is an extension of my appreciation and enjoyment of wine and life; and like wine, I think writing is best when shared with good company. With that I welcome you my Substack. I am so very happy you are here.

Wine has long been a conduit of joy, peace, exploration, and growth in my life. It is the lense through which I have learned about history, geography, culture, science, art, agriculture, hospitality, and most of all love. I write to share its unifying powers with anyone who cares to read.

Who Am I?

I’m a young mom of two young kids, living in Michigan. My entire professional life has been devoted to wine: I’ve served wine, made wine, now I market and sell wine for a wholesale distributor and contribute to a leading drinks podcast.
