My Professional Background:
I have built a strong career around my passion for wine and spirits. Coupling that passion with cutting edge CPG analysis and strategy has allowed me to stay at the forefront of my industry; excelling around the luxury categories (Wine, Spirits, Beer & Beverage).
​
I love the passion that goes into craft and luxury products. In today's market; there has never been a more appropriate time for independent distillers, artists and out of the box thinkers to shine.. and I aim to be a part of that process.
​
I have been fortunate enough to work with several key suppliers throughout the market, including:
Pernod Ricard, Gallo, Beam Suntory, The Wine Group, Heineken, Trinchero, St. Michelle and Constellation Brands.
My management expertise revolves around a hands on, open door policy; combined with deep analytics, supported with transparent financial results (top to bottom). I flourish in an environment that allows me to plan, execute and manage high level sales, brand execution, utilize my background for forecasting and budget analysis/management.
MBA: Norwich University
A vast amount of my upper management experience revolves around directing and planning yearly funding analysis through QBR’s/TBR’s and fiscal year objective planning. Closely monitoring a projects life cycle is a direct derivative of my MBA in project management.
