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. If you need something along those lines, I can probably help you out.
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, contributed to local and international publications, and 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. My wine column is published every Wednesday in Canada's largest urban weekly, The Georgia Straight.
