I grew up in Oregon, then moved to New York City where I worked professionally as an interactive art director at corporate. Subsequently, my passions lead me to mixology where I was taught by an award-winning bar master there.
After my adventures in the US military, Vicenza Italy is where I call home, and working on my title of Sommelier. I am a lifestyle designer and mixologist who absolutely loves this and everything that comes with it. The stories, intimate conversations, and the wonderful drinks that accompany them are all things I cherish forever. I appreciate the people I meet, the places I go, the hours I keep, and the spontaneity in every amazing cocktail.
I appreciate the raw reality of everyday life, the fleeting beauty of those intimate conversations not told otherwise, and I do my very best to understand and view through those various sets of lenses. With that in mind, each drink creation certainly comes from somewhere or some story- your wonders just might be a recognition or a familiarity of just that.
Thanks for sharing and viewing the world together — I hope you enjoy my site and to see you soon.
