Teaching and Learning - My Passion When I first moved to Seattle in 1990 there were 88 wineries and now there are over 1,000 wineries, and so many vineyards and varieties. It can get confusing. That's what I am here for... helping you make sense of it all. I have lived and worked in the wine industry for nearly 40 years in sales, distribution, wine director positions and wine judging, writing, education and events. I love teaching about wine and its history, pairing food and wine, and touring the world with others who enjoy wine, food, culture, history, and travel. I'm certified in the Court of Sommeliers, Wine Scholar Guild, Diploma Wine & Spirit Education Trust, Sherry Specialist and as a Bordeaux Tutor. Let's food and wine together!
