Introducing

Eva

Meet Eva, the newest member of the YWS team and a longtime wine enthusiast. Her appreciation for wine deepened while studying the wine and spirits business in France, where she fell in love not just with the drink, but with the culture, stories, and community that surround it.

Now back in Chicago, she’s excited to team up with Shannon and Daní to bring that same energy to the city. Building a space where young people can enjoy wine, learn more about it, and talk about it in an approachable, fun way.

Outside of YWS, Eva enjoys exploring Chicago’s restaurant scene, going to yoga classes, and reading with her book club. She’s here to grow this community and share a glass with others who love wine as much as she does. Cheers to that!.
