Summary
I am an outgoing individual who loves people and wine. I am passionate about learning all I can in this exciting world of wine. I spent a majority of my young adult life working in hospitality as a waitress, where I learned the ins and outs of a working restaurant and bar. Later in my life until present, I have worked in the high stress job of Real Estate and have achieved high client satisfaction through exceptional engagement and teamwork, fostering repeat business and strong customer relationships. I would like to take my skillset and apply it to this new line of work.
