About Connor Stephenson
While my educational background is in anthropology and design, I put my lifelong passion for food and beverage to good use post-college at a boutique wine merchant in the Greater Boston area. My career in fine wine retail sales continued in New York where I immersed myself in the Manhattan retail landscape again as a sales associate and then as a wine buyer. After several years in retail, I made the transition to wholesale at Skurnik Wines and Spirits, where I now work as a brand manager.
