I was the first on the ONEHOPE team to get married and have a child (Grace). We started ONEHOPE in June of 2007 and I got married in July 2007. Doing a start up will make you quickly realize if you married the right person. Met my wife while getting my teaching credential. Taught for one year and then went into the wine business. Worked for Gallo Wine Company (Surprise).

Everyday is different at ONEHOPE and I am never doing the same thing day in and day out, so there is never an opportunity to get bored or tired of what I am doing. Looking back at where we have come from and looking towards the future at where we are going is exciting. It is even more exciting knowing that the sky is the limit not only with our brand, but with what I can do within our company. Today our focus is our wine, but ten years from now we could have multiple products all within the ONEHOPE family. Not only is this exciting for us as a brand, but it is exciting to think how many charities we will be able to help and all the money that will be raised to actually make a difference during our lifetime. The term being socially responsible gets thrown around a lot, but everyday the team at ONEHOPE lives and breathes social responsibility and it is apart of our core beliefs. I am proud of what we have accomplished up to this point and can't wait to see where we go next, watch out because here we come.

"I see being a part of ONEHOPE as more than a job. It is a commitment to making a difference in the lives of others. Everyday the passion behind ONEHOPE inspires me. I am just ONE, but it's clear as a team we are making a difference."

I've always been intrigued by amount of variables that come into play with wine making. The soil, the climate, the hands that harvest the grapes, there are so many characteristics that will influence the end result. Wine is constantly changing and growing and so is our team and goals. Coming from the Restaurant Industry for the last 6 years, I have been a part of many guests' experiences when it comes to celebrating and sharing time together over good food and great wine. I now have the opportunity to be a part of sharing amazing wine and ONEHOPE's mission to the masses at our special events. Being a part of the ONEHOPE team allows me to introduce our wines and a new way to enjoy wine for a cause. My passion for gathering people together has been taken to new levels because of ONEHOPE being the focus. I love inspiring people with the idea of ONE Hope, MANY Causes.
