Director Of Marketing & Events
Jana always felt that in order to be successful at what you are doing you have to love what you are doing. On a trip to Costa Rica she realized that people who work where other people vacation really had it made. Putting two and two together she broke into the Napa/Sonoma County wine industry and hasn’t looked back since.
She brings an infectious energy to her event planning, taking every step to execute a seamless experience. Her knowledge gained through her previous role as Events Manager for Quivira Vineyards and La Follette Wines coupled with her sales and marketing experience in retail has given her the tools to succeed at every level when it comes to events and customer service.
Never has she been more thrilled than to take on the Customer Service and Events Manager role at quintessential winery, Williams Selyem. Her “ah-ha” moment to become part of the Williams Selyem team was enjoying a signed bottle of 2010 Williams Selyem Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir with a friend and thinking “wow every Tuesday should be celebrated like this!”
Born and raised in Sonoma County, she is the epitome of a “locavore”, enjoying wine country for everything it has to offer — world class craft wine & beer, market-fresh food, beautiful views, and fun community activities. When she is not at work you will find her on the golf course, dining out with friends or travelling the California coast.
