What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a vibrant establishment where I can lead a team, innovate cocktail menus, and enhance guest experiences.

With a robust background in bartending and team management, I have honed my skills in various prestigious establishments across Amsterdam. My journey began at The Duchess, where I dedicated myself to delivering quality service and mastering the art of coffee and cocktails. I have since evolved into a head bartender role at Pulitzer Amsterdam, where I oversee daily operations and ensure the highest standards of service.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in the opening teams of notable venues like Soho House and Cecconi's Bar and Restaurant. My focus has always been on structuring and improving bar operations, training staff, and creating innovative cocktail menus. I pride myself on my attention to detail and my ability to inspire and lead teams to achieve excellence in customer service.
