Bartender and FOH leader crafting signature cocktails and leading high-volume teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m an energetic bartender and front-of-house leader with 5+ years of experience in high-volume bars and restaurants. I’m known for crafting signature cocktails, delivering fast, friendly guest experiences, and keeping service smooth during the busiest shifts.
In my most recent role, I helped open and close the restaurant while focusing on cocktail and wine service, upselling liquor and food with strong menu knowledge, and handling cash transactions accurately. I thrive on multitasking with high volume sales—always staying guest-first and detail-focused.
As a Marketing Director — Bartender, I combined hospitality with team leadership and brand support. I scheduled and managed shifts for 30+ FOH staff, trained and mentored new hires to improve efficiency and consistency, and developed policies and procedures to streamline operations.
I also lead through energy and creativity: I coordinated catering and private events (including off-site partnerships with charities), and managed Instagram and Facebook presence with menu photography. With ServSafe and TIPS certifications, I bring responsible hospitality, polished mixology, and a collaborative leadership style to help teams and guests feel taken care of.
