Learn MoreI love being able to give someone a memorable experience. If someone can leave with a smile on their face from the hospitality that I provided, that warms my heart in so many ways and has propelled me to make this a career for the last 6 years. The thing that I cherish the most is that it saved my life. I was in a dark place with nowhere to go, and bartending led me back to my social butterfly personality and to create lifelong friends and friendships that I will carry with me forever.
What is your favorite drink to make and why?I usually tell people an ice cold bud light, but that’s just my easy answer lol. I fell in love with this drink called the naked and famous. It was the first drink to get me to enjoy the smokiness of mezcal. I’ve also branched off and done different riffs with this drink, so it helped spark my cocktail creativity. If someone needs a new drink to try, this is my go to. I love introducing it to people.
What would you do with the $20,000?I would use some of it to fly my dad to Italy to have an unforgettable experience in his homeland. He had worked 2 jobs since I was born and always made enough to provide for our family, but never enough to go on the trip he’s always wanted to. I would use the other portion of what is left to start up a business idea that I’ve been pondering on for some time now. My girlfriend (also a bartender) and I have something in the works and this money would help propel our journey.
