Our story

Tilted Platter began in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic lockdown. After a friend gave away six arrangements to some raffle-winning clients, my art gained interest and engagement in the community. Tilted Platter became a creative outlet, also allowing me to support other local, female-owned businesses by purchasing directly from and promoting them.

Wine is my first passion, having moved to Napa Valley in 2002 to study at The Culinary Institute of America. I built my knowledge of international and local wine regions as a Wine Specialist for Whole Foods for 12 years. While working directly with the wine, I was simultaneously introduced to the cheese world. I spent much time cutting, tasting, and learning about cheese in those years.

With a vast background in wine and years of working with cheese, my ability to pair flavors has become masterful. My mobile courses have been enjoyed as engaging and interactive classes.
