Isabella Bandeira de Mello, Head of Sales Operations

Raised in Rio de Janeiro, Isabella made the move to California in 2010 to study abroad for six months at a High School in Mountain View. What was meant to be a short experience away, has become a 12+ year long journey.

Isabella moved to Sonoma County to attend Sonoma State University in 2012, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Wine Business Strategies. Isabella was introduced to the real wine world as well as Medlock Ames through the internship program at Sonoma State back in 2015. In the past six years she has worked in our hospitality centers hosting guests, managing our digital media and marketing, and now running our membership and e-retail accounts. 

When not at work, Isabella enjoys traveling, going on hikes with her German Shorthaired Pointer, Piper, and indulging in all that Sonoma County has to offer - amazing food, delicious wines, and the beautiful outdoors!
