Meet the Team! Stephanie is the account manager for several of our international wine accounts and wine regions of origin and speaks fluent Spanish and French. Whether it’s connecting with program partners, communicating with clients, or reaching out to media, Stephanie’s workday never looks the same. Her passion for food, wine, and spirits stems from her grandfather who oversaw quality control for Sauza Tequila: he taught her the art of tasting and inspired her to pursue a Culinary Arts Diploma at @iceculinary. Outside of work, you can find Stephanie playing with her #furbaby @thebarkcrusader, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or mixing up hand-crafted cocktails. Stephanie is looking forward to the day she can travel again, and hopes to visit Europe, especially #Paris.

Thanks for all your hard work! #meettheteam #agencylife

It’s time to meet the newest addition to our team: Mara! Mara came onboard this summer and has quickly become an essential part of our agency marketing and support team. Currently a senior at Rockhurst University in #KC, Mara has effortlessly balanced her life as a full-time student and part-time Marketing Assistant, touching all aspects of client work from reprints monitoring and tracking, media sampling and social media to client reporting.

Mara was initially drawn to our industry because of food: her passion for cooking has naturally inspired her curiosity for wine, beer and spirits. Outside of work and class, Mara is especially proud of her fish taco-making skills and is a lover of all things Christmas🎄 ❄️ . After hours, you can find her sipping an amaretto sour or cosmo martini. Let’s all take a moment to congratulate Mara for finishing up her LAST EVER finals this week before her (virtual) graduation!! Cheers, Mara, and thank you for all of your hard work in the last 5 months!

It’s November, and this month we’re focusing on what we’re #thankful for. Cue the spotlight on Emma! Emma joined the G+V family a little over a year ago in Kansas City. She has since moved to the New York office and has the unique opportunity to work closely with both teams. While every day is different, Emma’s role is typically structured around client communications, media pitching and social/digital media strategy, writing, and management. She first became interested in the food, wine and spirits world when her aunt and uncle took her wine tasting in Napa Valley, where she later had the opportunity to work a wine harvest. Her love for the industry bleeds into her personal life as she began home brewing #beer during the #COVID-19 lockdown. Emma’s drink of choice is Prosecco, and if you get a chance, you should definitely ask her about her year living abroad in the Veneto and her past career as a synchronized swimmer. Thank you for all you do, Emma! #agencylife #meettheteam
