Chat With An Expat: Stevie Kim
If you work in the wine industry, Stevie Kim should be a household name. If her name isn't familiar, Stevie (born in Korea and raised in the United States) is the Managing Director of Vinitaly International: the strategic partner of Vinitaly, the largest wine and spirits exhibition in the world. To attend the annual fair in Verona, you need to be working in this field or studying wine to attend. However, the Italian Wine Cult Leader, as she has been fondly named, is helping to spread the 'wine gospel' making sure that you get to know better what's in your glass. Vini ltaliani disciples come from far and wide to take a deep dive into Italian wine, 'grape by grape'-all 600+. But ultimately, 'snob' is erased from 'wine snob' because if Stevie can understand it, so can you! Read more about Stevie's life, career and how she ended up living in Italy at this link and watch it on YouTube.
