Before joining McClain Cellars as an employee, Jillian was a Founder Wine Club Member. She fell in love with the passion behind the brand and of course the “stupid-good-wine” ;) In her previous life, Jillian owned a bridesmaid dress boutique in Scottsdale, Arizona and worked for over a decade in sales and account management.

When she’s not in our Irvine office or visiting one of our locations, you will find Jillian spending time with her husband of 10 years, Jon, and their French Bulldog, Dolce. She is a yoga enthusiast, an avid traveler, and a dedicated Ohio State football fan.
