Gabriel Martin
@gabrielmartin1
Experienced hospitality professional specializing in high-volume service, VIP experiences, and team leadership.
What I'm looking for
I am a hospitality professional with hands-on experience managing high-volume nightlife and fine-dining service. I deliver elevated guest experiences, with a focus on VIP table service, bottle service, and strategic upselling that drives nightly revenue.
I have a proven track record of rapid promotion and leadership, having moved from Control Host to Host Lead to Server while training new front-of-house staff and overseeing nightly operations. I coordinate closely with teams to maintain flow, optimize turnover, and preserve service quality during peak hours.
In addition to in-person hospitality skills, I have developed digital branding and influencer experience through a branded campaign role, producing content that aligned with campaign goals and increased engagement. I combine front-line sales acumen with reservation management tools like OpenTable and Resy.
I am pursuing further education in business and supply chain management to strengthen my operational and managerial capabilities, and I seek roles where I can contribute to guest satisfaction, team development, and revenue growth.
