From sales and distribution to sommelier and beverage director, I’ve made it my mission to experience every facet of the wine industry. I hold a Level 3 Certification from the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, though I credit much of my knowledge and perspective to hands-on experience in this industry.

I’m also the creator behind Instagram’s satirical wine persona, @The_Angry_Somm, where I bring a much-needed dose of humor to an often overly pretentious industry. Through irony and sarcasm, I’ve built a following that includes industry professionals, casual consumers, and newcomers alike—bridging the gap between expertise and comedy.
