We are very excited to announce that our own Chief Operating Officer, Kristin Campbell, has been named a San Francisco Bay Area's Brand Ambassador for Women of the Vine & Spirits!
A member since their inaugural conference, Kristin and her partner Master Sommelier David Glancy are big fans and supporters of the organization which dedicates itself to the empowerment and advancement of women in the alcohol beverage industry.
“Most of my finance and operations experience came from the high tech startup world where there were no shortage of opportunities and I was able to rise quickly in my career. When I transitioned my skills into wine education and we began San Francisco Wine School, I was stunned to learn of some of the challenges women were facing in this industry. I heard about the very first Women of the Vine Symposium and was immediately inspired by Deborah Brenner’s cause and the high quality event she produced and have been informally championing the organization ever since. I’m thrilled to now officially join Women of the Vine and Spirit’s community of Brand Ambassadors to provide more education, support and networking opportunities to members right here in the San Francisco Bay Area.”
