I was originally in international marketing and business development in the tech industry based in Dublin and Paris for over 15 years. While not in the industry, I was a foodie and wine geek and vacations often involved visiting wine regions.\u00a0<\/p><p>When I moved back to Ireland from Paris in 1997, I discovered the WSET and started taking their courses \u2013 with no real plan to change careers, Then, in January 2002, my husband was transferred to New York and I was about to start WSET Diploma \u2013 so that was the moment I decided to change \u2013 new city, new opportunity, and new career. I enrolled in the Diploma program at the International Wine Center and met Mary Ewing-Mulligan, MW and Linda Lawry, who basically took me under their wing, encouraged me to not just do Diploma but to study for MW. Studying at IWC gave me a wonderful overview of the industry and network of fantastic people \u2013 so many have become lifelong friends. As I had dabbled in academia, contemplating a PhD, I took to teaching and have been a wine educator at IWC since 2002.<\/p><p>While studying for MW and raising our son (now a 17 year old 6\u20196\u201d high school senior), I set up my own consulting company, working on various business and education projects as well as freelance writing.<\/p><p>Once I had my MW in the bag, I wanted to do something with more of a business slant and started to work with Bordeaux wines, as their North American Consultant managing their education and marketing budget and programs across the US. It was a fabulous experience and I did this for 5+ years when I got the opportunity to join forces with Mary Ewing-Mulligan, at IWC to work with her and the team as Director and help grow the business. This was May 2019. So now I am teaching a lot and that is something I truly love to do.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f9626a3 elementor-widget__width-auto elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3f9626a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-small\">2.

For me the people I meet are the most rewarding parts \u2013 and obviously more rewarding when I get to meet them in their vineyards and see their passion for what they do. What is also wonderful about this industry is that it never stops changing. Every year there is a new growing season, a new vintage and the evolution of the previous vintages. So I am forever learning.
