As the Retail Shop Manager at Monarch Wine Merchants, I run all aspects of the store, from client relations and social media marketing, to private tastings and shop events. I have a BA in Spanish and Studio Art from the College of Charleston, and an AA in Graphic Design from Trident Technical College. I use my creative and communication skills to create engaging and informative newsletters, websites, and marketing campaigns for the store. I also have over 10 years of experience in the hospitality industry, creating award-winning wine lists and beverage programs, working as an event staff at FAB - Females and Business, and as a weekly contributing writer at VINOHEAD. I am passionate about wine and learning, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with customers and colleagues. My goal is to provide a welcoming and memorable wine experience for everyone.
