Cassandra Schaeg is the founder of SIP Wine & Beer in Escondido, and the host of the new KPBS program, 'Fresh Glass,' featuring women and Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) entrepreneurs in the food and beverage industry
a program that premiered this month on KPBS, also featuring the stories of women and Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color in the food and beverage industry.
“Creating a television program around the food and beverage industry broadens the perspectives we see in our communities and shows that women and BIPOC leaders exist in industries traditionally overlooked,” says Schaeg, who grew up in Temecula. “Women and people of color are underrepresented in food and beverage industries. Representation matters and this series is proof and motivation for women and BIPOC individuals to see themselves achieving their dreams.
