This path rewarded me with an understanding of what wine really is…a centerpiece of gatherings with families and friends; something to facilitate celebration. When visiting family wineries in Europe, I found the experience to be like an invitation to a family gathering, and I admired the passion of the winemakers for their craft. I launched Wide Roots to bring the essence of this experience to more wine drinkers, hoping to help them in unlocking this world much the same way that I did for myself. I am certified by Vinitaly International Academy as an Italian Wine Ambassador. I have traveled extensively in Europe, having visited wine estates in Italy, Spain, France, Greece, and Austria. My prior experience includes operations management, finance, product management, supply and demand management, and engineering. I have managed organizations as large as 90 people."
