Skills

    I have been in the bar business for basically half of my life I enjoy building relationships with our customers and employees A large part of what we do in this industry is taking people who may be otherwise having a bad day and turn it into a good one

    We do this not just by adding alcohol to their system but by a personal touch of kindness

    It"s a large responsibility that I never take lightly

    I am also used to a fast pace / hectic work environment where i am able to solve multiple tasks with a smile while keeping spirits high amongst guests and employees
