Teaching about cheese and wine has been my pleasure and passion throughout my career. I want to share the experiences of enjoying wine and cheese together. I've had amazing opportunities to taste and pair hundreds of cheeses with local and international wines at trade events. Regular cheese trips to Europe and attending tastings and food shows have kept me up to date. Advising on pairings in the Lavender Ridge Vineyard Tasting Room was where I truly learned the magic of making pairings. Pairing wines and cheeses daily became second nature. Let's face it . . . I'm a cheese and wine geek!
All along, I've admired cheesemakers who care about their animals and are committed to the good stewardship of their environment to make the finest handcrafted cheeses possible. I like to support that dedication. So when I'm asked if I make cheese at home, I quickly say, "I'll leave that to the artisan cheesemakers. I'll support them and buy their cheeses." Bless the Cheesemakers.
