Thanks for dropping by! I'm a Vancouver-based wine consultant who writes about wine, presents seminars, hosts events, judges wine competitions, works with restaurants on their wine programs, and so on.
My background is in running restaurants around Vancouver, eventually managing Gastown's Salt Tasting Room until 2010 when I received the 'Sommelier of the Year' award at the 2010 Vancouver International Wine Festival.
I've run the wine program for a couple evenings at James Beard House, have had bylines local and international publications, such as Decanter and Maclean's, plus I occasionally sit in on tasting panels at Wine & Spirits Magazine on semi-regular visits New York. I have various certifications and credits through London's Wine & Spirit Education Trust, the Court of Master Sommeliers & the Winemaking Program at UC Davis. I'm also the co-founder of Top Drop, a series of terroir-focused trade and consumer festival-style events, dubbed "the nerdiest, most awesome wine festival in Canada."
