Nicole Carbon

Freelance Writer and Wine Consultant/Educator

United States

For over two decades, I've been writing for both print and online media outlets about food, wine, travel, health and wellness and other lifestyle-related topics. Other platforms include website, brochures, digital marketing including email and newsletters and social media channels. I had a column in Austin Woman Magazine called “A Girl Walks Into a Bar," wrote a column for SRQ Magazine called “Inside the Kitchen” and a monthly wine column in the Health & Leisure special section of the Venice Gondolier Sun. TV appearances include local NBC and ABC news affiliates as well as Cooking Channel’s Eat Street. My work regularly appears in Edible Sarasota. I have received a Level 2 Award in Wines certification from the internationally-recognized Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) and offer wine consulting and educational tastings.
