Summary
For the past seven years I have been passionately bartending in craft cocktail bars, high volume restaurants, weddings and private events. My experience in mixology includes classic cocktails, modern creations and an extensive knowledge of wine and spirits. I always prioritize hospitality and professionalism, paying attention to guests' needs and ensuring the bar entails a welcoming and enjoyable experience. I believe every cocktail should be made with details in mind and my passion always drives me further to improve my art.
