My appreciation and love of wine was born in New Orleans, a city full of flavor and soul. As a Cellar Master at Legendary Commander’s Palace, I managed the cellar and hosted their Chef’s Table Dinners with Wine Pairings for each course. I learned that every bottle tells a story by working as a sommelier at Pluck Wine Bar and Restaurant.

Fast forward to 30A’s stunning beaches and coastal charm, where I traded city streets for sandy dunes. Here, I found a new purpose bringing the joy of wine to life through retail and private tastings. I now host a monthly Wine Class at Grayton Corner Cafe and Wine Store. Each month, we try new wines with cheese pairings in great detail, but with a laid back setting. With Coastal Wine Gal, I get to share my discovery and love of wines along the Emerald Coast, blending laid-back luxury with a playful twist on education. Whether you’re a newbie or a connoisseur, it’s all about discovering your next favorite bottle. Here’s to great wine and unforgettable moments.
