For the past 25 years, I was living in Napa Valley, California, consulting and representing buyers and sellers of wineries, vineyards, and luxury estates. My clients were the founders of publicly listed companies, tech giants, entrepreneurs and philanthropists, all living their best lives, and many changing up the world before our eyes.
On 'The Interchange' Podcast, I take a deep dive into their personal stories, and many other fascinating people I have met from around the world. We talk cutting-edge technology, financial intelligence, leadership, AI, crypto, climate change, the power of philanthropy, passion, and much more.
As a patron of the world-renowned Festival Napa Valley, I also interview internationally renowned artists and emerging talent who grace the Festival’s stage during the 10 best days of summer each year.
Previously, while working in real estate, I was the Producer and Host of "Napa Valley Inside Out" Podcast - shining a light on one of the most beautiful and coveted lifestyles in the world. I interviewed well-known personalities, movers and shakers in the valley, vintners, entrepreneurs, leaders, consultants, festival organizers and amazing talent.
