Bio

I was born in Caxias do Sul, amidst Serra Gaúcha - the main wine producing region in Brazil - so wine has always been a part of my life. I majored in Electrical Engineering and worked almost a decade in this profession till I decided to pursuit my dream of opening a business in wine. With two partners I founded VinumDay in 2013, which stands today as one of the main e-commerces in Brazil, well-know for the high quality of its wine selection. Besides that, I started an online wine academy, called Sommelier Profissional, and I also teach WSET, WSG and ISG courses for Escola Celebrare.
