Matthew Montalvo

I have a diverse background, starting with mechanic work, followed by ranch work, and now would like to pursue a career as a bartender.

I began my career in mechanic work, gaining hands-on experience in diagnosing and repairing vehicles. Over the years, I developed a strong attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and a deep understanding of how things work mechanically. Working in various shops, I became proficient in working on / restoring cars, trucks, and even heavy machinery, learning both the technical and customer service aspects of the trade.

After a few years in mechanics, I transitioned to ranch work. The change was a natural shift, as I’ve always been passionate about working outdoors and with my hands. My time on the ranch involved maintaining equipment, handling livestock, and managing various day-to-day operations, where I learned discipline, resilience, and the value of hard, physical labor. It was also a great opportunity to develop a deep appreciation for teamwork and adaptability in a fast-paced, often unpredictable environment.

Now, I'm shifting gears once again, this time to bartending. I’ve always been drawn to the social aspect of work, and I enjoy meeting new people, creating experiences, and learning about the art of mixology. I see bartending as an exciting way to use my skills in communication, multitasking, and attention to detail in a new context. I’m excited to combine my previous work experiences with a fresh, customer-centered role in a lively and dynamic setting.

Ultimately, my goal is to bring the same work ethic, adaptability, and enthusiasm to bartending as I did in my previous roles.
