I entered the Wine and Viticulture program at University of Pisa in the fall of 2016 and, over the next 4 years, was immersed in learning the three aspects of the wine industry: Viticulture, Enology, and Wine Business. As a part of the hands on approach to wine education in Pisa, the students are required to work in their respective industries prior to graduation. Each harvest I spent at a different European winery. I've started my Masters Degree in Sustainability in Wine Making.

I have worked continuously in wineries since beginning my formal education in viticulture and enology. My experience spans small, medium, and large-scale wineries across Italy, France, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. I served as a Cellar Master in Corsica, France for nearly two years, and most recently as the Head Red Winemaker at Les Vignerons Propriétés in France. In New Zealand, I held a supervisory role at VinLink, overseeing multiple teams and ensuring the smooth execution of winery operations during harvest. I also worked as a Vintage Winemaker at Qualia Wines in Australia and as Assistant Winemaker with The Wine Collective in Baltimore, Maryland. I bring a global perspective, multilingual communication skills, and a strong foundation in both traditional and innovative winemaking practices.
