Cork Collective

I thrive on both the art and science of bringing people together at events, where every detail comes together to amplify a brand's message or turn customers into raving fans. With over 20 years of global experience in corporate, agency, and event tech, I'm a seasoned event strategist passionate about crafting unforgettable experiences.​

 

My superpower has always been in designing immersive event programs and executing them flawlessly, ensuring that they deliver the desired strategic results.​

 

Beyond events, my journey has led me to immerse myself in the world of wine. I've cultivated a deep understanding of wines and, in particular, how they can enhance an experience and connect people.

 

​Leveraging my event design and production skills along with my wine industry relationships, I now curate unparalleled wine experiences for corporate events.​

 

I've partnered with the best and brightest wine luminaries, wineries, DMCs, event agencies and corporate clients to provide creative, meaningful and fun experiences.

 

When I'm not crafting memorable experiences, I indulge my love for travel, culture, food and wine, always on the lookout for the next adventure.
