She has over 10 years of experience in sales and marketing, having worked in the banking industry and eventually moving into advertising sales. Currently, she also owns and operates a small business, Grate Expectations, born from a love of entertaining. Grate Expectations was founded in November 2019 and is a catering business that specializes in cheese and charcuterie “graze” boards. Grate Expectations offers corporate gifting, large event grazing tables, and platters for small gatherings that are as much of a treat as they are a conversation starter. Nedine’s prior work experience coupled with her ambition to become an entrepreneur gave her the confidence to start and operate this business full time amidst the pandemic.
