"Kellie is honestly a wine teaching superstar. I trust her in every context to lead a meaningful class that will build up the participants. She helps to make sure that everyone feels comfortable and has an uncanny way of making everyone feel heard and like they're walking away as a sommelier as well. I've hosted events with her that had 2 people and events with over 30, and she's taught the course with poise and fun every time!"
