      Oct 2015 - Oct 2017
      Bar Supervisor

      During my two years as a bar supervisor at NightQuarter I was responsible for one of 8 bars across the site. I managed a team of up to 8 bartenders for a patron volume up to 2500pax. This position taught me leadership skills and how to maintain team relationships while under pressure. I would also manage situations of conflict between staff and patrons through open communication and listening to all points of view.
