Wine has been a passion of mine for years. I have worked as a Store Operations Manager for a small, boutique wine shop in Reston Town Center, Market Cellars. While there, I learned a lot about wine and tasted plenty from all over the world. I have also worked part-time as a wine retail salesperson at Screwtop Wine Bar in Clarendon where I learned a lot more about cheese (yummm)! I have experience on the wine distribution side with Global Wines and also on the winery side as a Marketing Manager of Boxwood Winery in Middleburg, VA. I have also completed the world renown wine certification, Wine & Spirit Education Trust out of London.
Wine has become more popular with the younger crowd, unlike generations before. August 2010 I started a group here in DC called the
Young Winos of DC. It's a group of winos that get together to share good times, learn about wine and make new friends. The group grew tremendously over the years and I have met some great friends along the way.
Food is also a major part of my life. I enjoy cooking and learning new recipes. I also love entertaining! This blog is a collection of things wine, food and entertaining. Thanks for reading!

Cheers!
