About
I am a seasoned creative strategist rooted in wine, lifestyle & hospitality.
I found my true sense of belonging after moving to Oregon for college. It was there that I learned about farming as a way of life, connection to food through the seasons, and how community is formed and deepened through art, food, wine and shared geography. After earning my BA in English, I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, another region steeped in the value of place-based and intentional approaches to growing, eating and making. I became a mother during the summer of 2023, which continues to shape my approach to life & my creative practice.
My years working at Scribe Winery and later with numerous restaurants and wineries plunged me head first into the world of wine and hospitality. It was a decade-long deep dive into the vibrant and interconnected webs of hospitality, restaurants, wineries, farms & design in Northern California.
I currently live in Napa, California as part of a community that embodies my values of balancing work and play, caring for and living in nature & relishing life’s sensory pleasures through friendship, food and wine. When not at work you can find me searching for new cookbooks and poetry collections at the Napa Bookmine, cooking, making meditative flower arrangements, visiting vineyards for the family winery, and spending time with my family.
