Experienced wine professional with a multifaceted background in boutique wine importation, hospitality management, and wine education. As the co-founder of Winelab Company, Cru Wine Bar, and Reverie Siam Resort, I have cultivated a comprehensive understanding of the industry's nuances. My hands-on experience extends to cellar operations and wine production, gained from roles in esteemed vineyards across Europe. Holding certifications as a Sommelier and a Diploma from WSET, alongside specialized programs in viticulture, vinification, and terroir management, I bring a depth of knowledge crucial for steering wine programs to success. Notable achievements include contributing to the accolades earned by Reverie Siam Resort and conducting research on evolving consumer trends in natural wine consumption. I am poised to leverage my expertise and passion for wine to elevate the wine experience and drive excellence as a Wine Director.
