While there, he built a passion and a strong platform of knowledge focused on international luxury wines, with a specialty in wines from Italy and Spain.

Over the last 20 years, his deep knowledge of international and luxury wines seamlessly translated to working as a sales leader with small, US family-owned wine producers Chalk Hill and BR Cohn.
