I also have the incredible job of speaking at industry symposia and judging wine competitions around the world, emceeing and moderating at conferences, and guest lecturing at local colleges.\xa0\nWhile stringing thoughts and paragraphs together has always come naturally to me, I know that\u2019s not the case for everyone.\xa0I believe that everyone has a story to tell and with the right questions or guidance, anyone can be a writer. My talent is in making that happen, cheering on budding writers and ensuring every piece is the best it can be.\nIn my spare time, you can find me on the softball field, hiking the trails of Northern California, baking far more than any one person can eat, or curling up on the couch with my dog and a new book.\u201c\nConnect:\nWebsite: https://www.erinkirschenmann.com/about\xa0\n\nMore about Juliana Colangelo:\nJuliana Colangelo is a leading communications and marketing professional for the beverage alcohol industry.
