COURSES DESIGNED FOR THE WINE & Whiskey ENTHUSIAST

As a former educator, I love teaching others about the wine world. After completing various wine courses, I’ve personally designed these classes to be fun, informative, and present wine in a concise way with clear wine graphics. You’ll discover food pairings, service tips and have access to my “must see” wineries of the region. After completing these courses, you’ll sip with confidence and have a wealth of knowledge to share with others. My credentials for instructing include:

  • Certified Napa Valley Wine Expert- through Napa Valley Academy

  • Champagne MOOC course - The Comité Champagne - the trade association that represents the interests of independent Champagne producers (vignerons) and Champagne Houses.

  • Certified Argentinian Wine Specialist - through Napa Valley Wine Academy

  • WSET Wine awards - Level 1, 2, and Level 3 with 1500+ hours of study
