Born in NYC to two Physical Education teachers, Frank's life has been defined by movement. From a hyperactive child, to a sports-mad teen, to an anything-to-get-outside adult, you will only see him sitting still over good food (and wine!) with friends and family.

Frank arrived in NZ in 2015 and fell in love with the beaches, rivers, lakes, and mountains that seemed to be everywhere he looked. Settling in the Waitaki Valley in 2021, Frank returned to hospitality and rediscovered a love of hosting, mainly working with the local world-class fare.

Joining the Valli team as a Sales Manager means he can continue meeting new friends and learning new things, all while talking about Central and North Otago, two of the most exciting Wine regions in the world.
