Bio
I've been in the wine industry for 25 years, starting in white linen restaurants, moving into fine wine retail, then over a decade as a wholesale rep specializing in fine wines from around the world. From there I specialized in social media marketing for wine retailers, restaurants, wholesalers, and importers.
I'm a wine educator first and foremost, having founded Twin Cities Wine Education in 1998 and subsequently teaching over 15,000 students of the years. My wine education work has taken me around the world, teaching wine to the masses and specialists alike. One of the more interesting experiences was an internationally broadcasted episode of 'Performance Today' where I paired wine with classical music.
I like building businesses, especially at the micro business level. Between my wife and I we run about eight concepts, depending on how you count, and I enjoy mentoring others regarding the self-employed life.
