I have 20 plus years of experience in Marketing and producing VIP events.  I managed extremely high-profile Advertising and Publicity photo shoots for The Walt Disney Studios, including Pirates of the Caribbean, Maleficent, Alice in Wonderland, The Chronicles of Narnia and my absolute favorite Under the Tuscan Sun.  I am pictured here in 2002 at Frances Mayes Bramasole in Cortona, Tuscany where we shot Diane Lane for the Advertising campaign.  For me it was a dream come true.

I have continued my professional development in the wine industry through the International Sommelier Guild Wine Fundamentals 1 & 2, North American Sommelier Association's Sommelier Program and became Certified as an Italian Wine Specialist.

I hope to combine my skills in Marketing and producing VIP events with my passion for wine, food and travel.
