His bio:
"I was born in Germany and grew up in a diplomatic family, lived overseas in Romania and Portugal, but spent most of my childhood in Northern Virginia. I caught the wine bug at an early age, having small sips of wine at the table with dinner and grew to know wine as just another component of a meal. I have worked in many facets of the wine industry: as a partner in a boutique retail store in Aspen, Colorado; popping corks at multiple restaurants; a full harvest in Santa Barbara, and with a wine distributor in both sales and management positions. Based out of Denver, Colorado I enjoy the outdoors where I can be found rock climbing or hiking with my wife and dog. I often eat too much and have been known to drink a couple too many bottles on a good night listening to The Grateful Dead or 90’s Hip-Hop. I speak just enough Spanish to be dangerous and am happy our growers are patient people. I am passionate about wine from all over the globe and the families behind the vino. Wine is an integral component in cultivating an enjoyable life."
