2017

My love of wine started back when I was waitressing at my local (Michelin starred) Country pub in Devon at the tender age of 15. It soon became apparent that the world of food and wine was my passion and is now something I couldn’t imagine my life without.

I moved to London in 2014 to pursue my dreams of becoming a sommelier and landed the dream job working at Dinner by Heston in the Mandarin Oriental, Knightsbridge. I was lucky enough to be trained by a Master Sommelier and was exposed to the most famous bottles from across the globe.

I’m currently working for Moet Hennessy as 'Wine Development Ambassador' and also teach WSET which I adore.

I attended the course in 2017 which was absolutely the best wine trip I will ever attend – the houses, the wines, the memories and the friends I made will be something I’ll cherish forever. I couldn’t possibly choose a favourite moment from the course – there are simply too many to name. The most amazing part of it all is now belonging to this incredible group of Champagne lovers who I will continue to learn and grow from. It feels like being part of an exclusive club!

I’ve been a committee member since 2018 and am excited to work my way up to Lady Chairman in the near future – watch this space!

How did you start your career in Wine & Champagne?
