Short bio
- Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. I’ve only had three serious jobs and was fortunate to find the “best” boss at the second one. He is the reason I am at The Sorting Table, even though he is now retired.
- I love my sports! I am a die-hard 49er and Oakland A’s fan! I keep busy with bowling, softball (love my Swinging Divas) and bocce.
- I have been married to my husband, Mark, for going on 24 years. We have two handsome young men, Brandon (22) and Matthew (19) who, along with occasional heartache, bring us much more joy and laughter then we could have ever imagined before we started this wild ride called life together.

How did you start in the wine business?
As a customer service rep for the Henry Wine Group, where I first began to learn about wine. The first lesson was, White Zinfandel is not “real” wine. I spent almost 15 years with some very exceptional people learning about wine, food, and friendship.
