      Bartender

      Held the responsibility of creating monthly changing cocktails with menus and inventing unique ingredients which would awake interests in our clientele and separate our bar program from our competition. I was actively involved in advancing the bar's performance and sales.I also trained and educated the servers and bar staff on wine, beer, spirits, cocktails and bartending techniques. Naturally, serving guests on the bar top, at bar tables, building regular clientele, mixing drinks and giving suggestions on food, beverage and our restaurant concept were all part of my everyday tasks.
