I was born and raised in Australia, but lived in Europe for three years and then in the US for over 40. My husband, who is American, and I moved back to Australia (first time for him) in early 2022. We discovered the south coast of New South Wales, an area I was previously unfamiliar with, and absolutely love living here.

I have been a Federally licensed US wine importer since 1992 (still am), a part-time university lecturer, a writer of wine business books and a consultant to the wine industry. My husband was in real estate in the US, but has been working for a shipping company since obtaining his permanent Australian visa. We are both active - I love working out, bush walks, skiing and nature. He is an avid surfer and snowboarder. We’re both adventurous and love to travel and explore places that might be off the beaten track.
