Ari Bendersky's passion for stories and finding out about people’s lives drew him towards a career in journalism and content creation. He started his career as a music journalist in the nineties, gay publications writer, and is currently a freelance editor.
Having worked in different restaurants, writing about food in the Chicago scene felt like home. He developed a deep interest in wine, food, and travel; launching his blog in the mid 2000’s.
“I really wanted to go deeper, and that allowed me access to winemakers and wineries. I would go on trips to visit these places, go to the store and buy wine. I would also get wine sent to me as writers do. It really just opened up a whole world and it allowed me to continue on that path and do the same thing with food.”
Tune into this episode as we learn more about Ari’s love for culinary arts, tactics for powerful storytelling, his journey navigating the corporate world and his vision to explore the wine industry!
