Wondering what I have been up to? My dream endeavour has been evolving; what I originally wanted to accomplish has grown to be much more meaningful, encompassing more than just a food truck.
Cree-ation Nation is the culmination of my several decades of experience in the tourism and hospitality industry. From my first position in a kitchen at age 14 to the beginning of my wine career at age 24, I have always strived to improve, take more courses, challenge myself, and be the best version of me that was possible.
Mobile in nature, Cree-ation Nation will be partnering with several businesses throughout the Okanagan Valley. From small, intimate gatherings to a larger, more immersive experience, I can customize and work with several communities while still sharing stories and being respectful of the Land and Peoples around us.
As I work on the next steps, feel free to follow my @creeationnation socials as I develop and build.

In wine there is truth. This blog is about my own musings, from the very beginnings....
Truth.
In my very first wine experience, I did not even like the smell of wine. I loved the tanks, hoses, and barrels but plugged my nose while walking around the winery. In reality, this wine ninja was all of 5 years of age and had many years to go before falling under the allure of wine.
Flash forward a few years, I was culinary bound, learning about flavours, origins and the land and then discovered the concept of Wine pairings. My mind was blown :O! I needed to learn all I could, so I took a chance and applied at 3 wineries. I started at my first choice one on an entry level position, but I have never looked back. I grew with the winery, experiencing different aspects and later growing with the company in management in all aspects of retail and also in sales.
Though I have done schooling for other things artistic in nature, I have always circled back to wine, the siren to my career. I have my ISG diploma, are WSET Certified and strive to learn all I can, taking my WSET Diploma with a goal in sight.
This is a place where I will share my true impressions, experiences, tastings, recipes (gluten free as I am a celiac), and thoughts not of anyone else.
In vino veritas, the quest for knowledge never ends.
