About

As an independent wine consultant, I help clients create award-winning wine lists, train restaurant staff on wine service and knowledge, and design innovative wine concepts and events. I have been working in this role since June 2022, and one of my past clients was MSC Cruises, a leading global cruise line. I have over 20 years of experience in the wine industry, and I have been recognized as the best sommelier of Switzerland, Italy, and Germany in different competitions. I have a passion for discovering and sharing wines from around the world, and I have a strong network of wine producers and distributors. I also have a background in restaurant management, import-export, and personal wine cellars. My mission is to enhance the enjoyment and appreciation of wine for both professionals and consumers.
