"The wine program at Cabrillo College was a great launching point for me as I entered the wine industry. The in-depth courses gave me a very solid foundation. Certain classes really ignited a passion for discussing wine academically and cultivated the skillset to taste and discuss wine systematically. I pursued various professionally recognized certifications including the Wine and Spirits Educational Trust Level 3, Italian Wine Scholar, and Certified Wine Specialist. I have since trained restaurant staff, hosted private wine tastings, poured at special events, and most recently created a wine education company. I am confident anyone interested in a very thorough education in international wines would benefit from the program offered at Cabrillo College."

"The Cabrillo College Wine Program has given me the tools that I needed to be successful in the wine industry. After my second wine class, I became a tasting room host for Wrights Station Winery up in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and eventually, I became the lead host for Scheid Vineyards Tasting Room (Carmel By The Sea). I've earned a Certificate in Wine Studies which has helped me achieve my current position as district manager for Republic National Distributing Company where I lead a team in charge of wine and spirit sales for chain stores."
