Tell us about yourself
After college, I lived in Italy, studying Italian and Art History. While there, I fell in love with all things Italian, including their wonderful food and wine. When I returned to the USA, I missed so many things about Italy, one of which was Fresh Mozzarella, so I decided to build a cheese factory and make the cheese here in Dallas. That was 40 years ago!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I love it when people tell me that our cheeses are delicious!

Keeping everyone who works for us happily. I am so proud and appreciative of our cheesemakers and the great work they do.
