What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers opportunities for growth in the hospitality industry.

I am a personable and motivated worker with over 10 years of experience in the restaurant industry, ranging from ax throwing bars and outdoor dance clubs to fine dining establishments. My strong people skills, firm work ethic, and exceptional memory enable me to provide careful crafting and outstanding service while maintaining a pleasant presence. I prioritize team-driven, efficient customer service, ensuring that every guest has a memorable experience.

Currently, I serve as a Server/Bartender at 18bin in Las Vegas, where I thrive in a high-volume, fast-paced environment. I lead service for Arts District events and assist behind the bar while managing my regular duties. My previous roles at Esther’s Kitchen and The Knickerbocker Tavern have further honed my skills in banquet serving, cocktail creation, and team leadership. I take pride in my ability to maintain professionalism while assisting VIPs and training new staff.

Throughout my career, I have developed an extensive knowledge of liquors, cocktails, and fine dining service. I am detail-oriented and adaptable, always eager to learn and grow within the hospitality industry. My goal is to continue delivering exceptional service and contributing to a positive team atmosphere.
