On this International Women’s Day, I want to ack On this International Women’s Day, I want to acknowledge the contributions of the inspirational women in wine who’ve made an impact to my students as guest speakers in my wine marketing class over the years. Without these talented, hard-working women, my wine marketing class wouldn’t be the success that it is 👏🏼

These women include

My sister from another mister, Ali @alioppenlaender from @lieblingwines whose young energy is contagious 

Student favourite @brockuniversity @goodmanschool alumna @nadia_senchuk from @leaningpostwine who always bring the 5th P of marketing - Passion 

My original mentor for the course @dreakaiser @dreawine whose wisdom and support has far surpassed any guest lecture she’s given 

And finally @brittdixoncreative who’s the best storyteller creator I know 

Happy International Womes Day and continue to shine bright and inspire 🌟
