As a certified sommelier, I spent years earning the title through study, blind tastings, and hands-on service training. For me, it’s not a badge, but a tool I bring to every meal I host. Beyond wine, I’m a lifelong vinyl collector who believes music can elevate a meal as much as the right glass. That’s why I founded Vinile Italian Chophouse, where each course arrives with a sip, story, and soundtrack. And when the night ends, every guest takes home a vinyl album, so the experience plays on.
