FOUNDER & DIRECTOR

Angela's 20+ years as a mission-driven entrepreneur have shaped her unique approach to marketing across diverse industries. As the daughter of two chefs, she grew up in her family's fine dining restaurant in Madison, Wisconsin and saw from a young age the hustle that entrepreneurship takes. She later founded a yoga studio in her hometown on a shoestring budget, and through savvy marketing, grew it into a community cornerstone featured in the New York Times. Following her passion for wine, she moved west -eventually leading marketing for Oregon's Nicolas-Jay winery and Van Duzer Vineyards. Currently, Angela lives in the Willamette Valley with her horses, Espresso and Romeo, where you'll find her discovering new indie wineries or digging in the dirt on her small farm — usually with a glass of Oregon sparkling and potato chips nearby.

MARKETING COORDINATOR

From the sunny shores of Tampa to the music scene of Austin, Kim's journey eventually led her to Portland, bringing a blend of diverse influences to her marketing approach. When she's not crafting fresh campaigns for clients, you'll find her making music with her husband, leading riders through intense spin sessions at Burn Cycle, or expressing herself with paintbrush in hand. Kim's marketing adventure began unexpectedly at a fitness studio nine years ago, blossoming into a career that includes impressive stints as a Regional Marketing Director and freelance powerhouse. Her passion? Helping brands find their authentic voice. Her perfect pairing? "Anything Italian with a bold red" —straightforward yet sophisticated, much like her marketing philosophy.

MARKETING ASSISTANT

Vanessa's roots run deep in Oregon soil — literally. Growing up on a small Amity farm, she developed both a love for the Pacific Northwest and a knack for authentic storytelling. A Willamette University grad with valuable wine-world experience from her marketing work at Domaine Serene, Vanessa brings fresh perspective to every client project. When not crafting creative marketing solutions, she's cheering at Timbers matches or scouting Oregon's trails and tasting rooms. Her marketing journey began with a sisterly nudge toward a college class that sparked an unexpected passion. Her perfect pairing? A creamy Alfredo alongside a crisp Willamette Valley Chardonnay — balanced, just like her approach to marketing.

RECIPE DEVELOPMENT & CLIENT CARE

Kathy's culinary journey spans over 40 years, with roots in a family where garden-to-table wasn't a trend but a way of life. Her experience ranges from fine dining kitchens to creating comforting classics, giving her the versatility to help our clients connect meaningfully with their customers. Beyond recipe development, Kathy excels in client care, ensuring each client receives personalized attention and support. When not crafting perfect pairings for our client's wine clubs, Kathy explores the world, gathering inspiration from wine regions like Mendoza, Umbria, and Burgundy. Her perfect pairing? Oregon Pinot Noir with anything mushroom-based, a pairing that perfectly captures her appreciation for the Willamette Valley's bounty and her classic-meets-comfort cooking philosophy.
