Make Wine Your Passport®

Approachable wine experiences through food, culture, place, and story.

I create approachable wine tasting and food-pairing experiences in New York City for private groups, organizations, and events. No complicated language, no pressure, and no wine snobbery.

Wine Experiences & Collaboration


Food and Wine Pairing Experience

A guided experience that helps guests understand why certain foods and wines work well together. Pairings can be designed around tapas, cheeses, chocolate, small bites, or a culturally inspired menu.

Corporate and Member Experiences

Engaging wine experiences for employee groups, member communities, client events, and private organizations. Programs can be designed as educational tastings, networking experiences, cultural celebrations, or food-and-wine pairings.

Wine Content and Event Collaboration

Available for wine-related articles, event concepts, tasting scripts, cultural storytelling, brand collaborations, moderated conversations, and educational content.

A booklet titled 'Wine About It' with a subtitle 'An approachable wine & cheese pairing experience'. The cover features an illustration of a glass of red wine, a bunch of grapes, and a cheese platter with two pieces of cheese.

Make Wine Your Passport®

  • My Wine Journey

    My relationship with wine began with food, travel, and curiosity. As I continued studying wine, I became fascinated by the people, regions, traditions, and stories behind every bottle. My goal is to make that knowledge welcoming and useful, especially for people who may feel overlooked or intimidated by traditional wine culture.

  • My Approach

    I explain wine in clear, everyday language and connect it to food, culture, and personal experience. You do not need an advanced palate or an extensive vocabulary. You only need curiosity and a willingness to explore.

  • What You Will Gain

    Learn how to describe what you like, choose wine with greater confidence, understand basic pairings, explore wine regions, and enjoy the experience without feeling judged or overwhelmed.
