I was born in Cleveland, raised in Dallas, and adulted in Atlanta, where I spent 17 years building my career, community, and the foundation for Tish Around Town.
For more than 25 years, I led complex projects in banking and financial technology (FinTech). That work sharpened my attention to detail and strengthened the project management skills I now use to turn ideas into thoughtfully planned experiences.
In 2014, I launched Tish Around Town as a blog celebrating wine, food, travel, and culture. Over time, it grew beyond the blog to include events, wine education, curated travel, and a community centered around connection and discovery.
As my work in wine evolved, I earned my WSET Level 2 certification and built trusted relationships throughout the wine and hospitality industry.
In 2023, I moved to Napa to follow my wine dreams. Today, I’m a Napa-based wine experience curator, educator, writer, and event producer. Through Tish Around Town, I create wine experiences, produce events, provide concierge services, and continue the writing that started it all. I also lead and moderate conversations within the wine and hospitality industry.
Everything I do is rooted in connecting people through wine, food, stories, culture, and community. My goal is simple: to make wine approachable, inclusive, and, most importantly, FUN.
