Summary
For the last eight years, I have devoted majority of
my time and energy into wine, food, and hospitality
industry. I have made incremental improvements in
the direct to consumer industry by increasing wine
sales, creating a hospitable flow in the workspace,
and contributed to multiple wine club acquisitions. I
want to continue climbing in leadership with hopes
of learning back of house operations including cellar
work, winemaking, and tank management.
