He also contributed frequently to travel, wine (Wine Spectator) and inflight publications (United, Delta) before moving into a full-time career in public relations (www.nstpr.com). He continues to cover wine as contributing wine writer for San Diego Magazine and writes about wine, food and travel for magazines, newspapers and various blogs.
