At thirty-three years old, Cassandra Felix, a globally recognized and honored advanced sommelier, believes the dream of diversifying the still overwhelmingly white world of wine is not only attainable, but one she is primed to help achieve. As a first-generation Haitian American, though, she had little to no exposure to the hospitality industry while growing up in Florida. “Like most immigrant families, home base is home base,” Felix says. “Your family cooks elaborate dinners in the house that relate to your culture. I loved being in the kitchen with my grandmother, who cooked meals with love.”
