What We Do

  • Does your staff truly understand the wines they serve? Can they confidently describe the wines by the glass, suggest wine pairings, and upsell to guests? More importantly—do they care?

    I run custom wine training programs that educate, engage, and empower your staff to feel confident in selling wine. From a quick brush-up to an intensive bootcamp, your team will gain the knowledge to increase wine sales and enhance the guest experience.

    📍 Best for: Restaurants, wine bars, and hospitality businesses in London, Ontario.

  • It’s not just about knowing wine—it’s about serving and storing it correctly.

    ✔ Is your wine being served at the right temperature?
    ✔ Are your bottles being stored properly to avoid spoilage?
    ✔ Is your team trained in proper wine service techniques?

    I help businesses elevate their wine service standards to ensure guests get the highest quality experience while minimizing waste and loss.

    📍 Perfect for: Wine-focused restaurants, bars, and hospitality groups looking to improve service and protect their wine inventory.

  • A great hospitality experience goes beyond the drink menu.

    ✔ Does your team align with your hospitality philosophy?
    ✔ Are they delivering consistent, on-brand service?
    ✔ Do they know how to create a memorable guest experience?

    Let’s review your hospitality approach, fine-tune service techniques, and create a culture of excellence. A motivated, empowered team delivers better service, increases revenue, and reduces staff turnover.

    📍 Best for: Restaurants, bars, hotels, and hospitality-focused businesses.

  • It’s not just about wine—modern guests expect expert-level cocktails and beer knowledge too.

    I provide comprehensive training on craft beer, cocktail preparation, and spirits to ensure your full beverage program is strong, on-brand, and profitable.

    📍 Best for: Bars, pubs, restaurants, and venues looking to refine their beverage program.
