The misfit Orgin Story

Some of the original Kitty Rating scores from 2017. Each one of these were awarded to wineries or hotels.

I’m a humor writer who landed myself in the wine industry by chance.

I originally started the Wine For Misfit site when my winemaker husband moved us to Napa in 2017. 

Since most people move to wine country for wine and culinary careers, I got a job in the industry thanks to the lack of a digital marketing talent pool. 

After a few years of marketing a wine-kegging business, I managed to convince a winery that I was the perfect fit for their copywriting team.

It was great. I had a real, full-time writing joby-job.

Then I got laid off.

Womp womp.

So, I decided to use all the angsty copy I couldn’t use in their content and reboot my Wine For Misfits site. Now I can use that once rejected copy in my content.

Since the site’s OG launch, I have become more knowledgeable (WSET II knowledgable (IYKYK)), a slightly better writer, and a slightly worse graphic designer.

I’m here to make the funnest wine & travel blog, write lame jokes, and essentially make myself laugh.

I’d love for you to join me.
