MITT was the single most impactful program that I have ever attended; everything I have created, from my business to several charitable initiatives, have been made possible due to the direct result of these trainings.

Last year I co-founded a charitable organization that distributed over 1000 financial grants to wine professionals in need, I won β€œWine Educator of the Year” and β€œ40 Under 40” for Wine Enthusiast Magazine.

I had just landed what I thought was my dream job prior to doing the trainings, I was financially prosperous, and successful (on paper).

Someone in my life thought that I would find value in the content of the trainings and knew that I was capable of even more than I already was creating. Now looking back, there has never been a greater investment.
