Alison Scholefield, through parental association, has been involved in the wine industry since birth. As the daughter of two wine industry professionals, Alison has known how to identify wine scents from a young age, and works in the Coletta office part time as she completes university. Aside from this, Alison spent a season working in the Okanagan, at Sumac Ridge Estate Winery in the Cellar Door Bistro and another toiling in her family’s Switchback Vineyard.

Now completing her fourth-year university studying history and French language, Alison works with Coletta & Associates part time under the watchful eye and guidance of Leeann Froese, specifically on communications, media relations and event management. Alison, who is fluent in English and French (and has a working knowledge of Spanish), is a skilled communicator. Her professionalism, sunny disposition and dedication to the team make her a valuable asset.

When away from her desk, Alison can likely be found at the family’s property in Summerland, working on her dive from the swimming platform on Okanagan Lake.
