Savvy Sipper Spotlight
Meet Amy: Teacher, Mom, wine enthusiast and valued Every Sip team member.
At Every Sip, we love showcasing the incredible team members who make our business thrive. Today, we’re excited to introduce Amy Umphrey, who has been with us for 8 months. Amy’s journey with Every Sip began with a recommendation from her neighbor, Kayla Harken, and has blossomed into a passion for connecting with people and sharing her love for wine.
Amy joined Every Sip while searching for a flexible second job that would allow her to earn extra money. Amy leads a busy life as a third-grade teacher & mom of 3 children. Amy was drawn to the flexibility that Every Sip offers. In addition to this flexibility, Amy cherishes the opportunity to engage in adult interactions, which adds variety to her daily routine.
When asked about her favorite part of the job, Amy enthusiastically responded, “the people!” She loves the opportunity to connect with customers who stop by to sample the products. “I really enjoy chatting with everyone who comes to try what I’m offering,” she says. Sharing product knowledge, especially about her favorite—wine—makes the experience even more enjoyable for her.
When it comes to favorite brands, Amy is quick to choose anything with wine. "I love to drink wine!" she says. Amy’s passion for wine makes trying new products exciting, allowing her to discover and sample beverages she may have never considered before. A few of her current favorites are High Noons and Josh wines.
Amy fondly recalls a shift where she had the opportunity to sample Caymus wine. "Customers could not believe that I was sampling it and wanted to talk a lot about it," she remembers. These fun and engaging moments with customers keep her energized and motivated on the job.
Beyond her work with Every Sip, Amy is dedicated to her role as a third-grade teacher. She enjoys spending her free time with her family and friends, often visiting the cabin or going out to eat. Balancing her teaching career and her work with Every Sip has allowed her to maintain a dynamic and fulfilling lifestyle.
Amy’s journey with Every Sip highlights the unique opportunities our team members have to connect with people, explore new products, and enjoy a flexible work environment. We’re thrilled to have her as part of the team and look forward to many more memorable experiences ahead!
