During my career I have held senior marketing positions with The Wine Group (Franzia, Corbett Canyon, Foxhorn, Mogen David); Otsuka/Crystal Geyser; McKesson bottled water and Lawry’s Foods. I served on a number of WineVision subcommittees dealing with wine consumer segments. I conceived, co created and fielded the nationwide adoption/migration survey of wine consumers for winevision. I recently conceived, co-developed and launched Vignon Flavor balancing Seasoning (www.napaseasoning.com) with my co founder Tim Hanni MW. I have executed successful consulting assignments for enterprises as diverse as Unilever, Suntory, Namelab, Claria.com, Gay & Robinson sugar, Langtry Estate winery, CF Napa and The European Development Bank. I had the pleasure of working for the LA Olympic Organizing Committee as Venue Director (GM) of the 1984 Olympic Basketball venue, contributing to the first ever Olympic profitability. I live in Napa, California with my wife and two children.
