Experience
Bartender, Buffalo Wild Wings: Dallas, TX Current
I am a full-time nighttime bartender for Buffalo Wild Wings. I work alone on nights and weekends, tending the bar and bar well, so I make %100 of the drinks for the entire restaurant during my shift. I also serve the 13-seat bar and 25-table cocktail area while, also, barbacking myself. This job is high- volume and fast-paced (which I love), and I never stop moving. Bartender, Copper & Vine: Dallas, TX 2024
I work full-time as a bartender mixing specialty drinks and creating new drinks that satisfy customers’ tastes. Our restaurant specialties are whiskey and wine (though we utilize a full bar). I work hard to pair customers with wines and cocktails that best suit their tastes and complement their meals. Copper and Vine is a growing business so I focus on cultivating a rapport with customers that encourages regular patronage.
Event Bartender, Salute!: Los Angeles, CA, 2023 - 2024 I work as an independent contractor for different events. The event culture includes everything from weddings to brand events. The pace is high speed, with high demand and consistent flow. I make everything from standard drinks to specialty event drinks. Server, Mel’s Drive-In; West Hollywood, CA 2019
In my position at Mel’s, I serve overnight shifts at an extremely high-volume venue with a 1950s flare! Our late-night customers are looking for good food and fun fast service which I happily provide.
Server and Barista, Bluestone Lane: Venice & Santa Monica, CA 2018 I worked in a high-volume coffee location with a full kitchen as a server, barista, and cashier for 2 locations. The company was new so we had to work to build relationships with the neighborhood.
Cocktail Server, Society Billiards and Bar; New York, NY 2016-2017 I served drinks while suggesting high-quality and house-brand products. I focused on products whose distributors we had a strong working relationship with our bar. Bartender, Top Tier Event Staffing; Dallas, TX-2014-2016 I worked in multiple venues as a server and bartender for Two-Sister’s Catering, Wolfgang Puck, and Top Tier Catering. I most developed my familiarity with beer and wine during my time here.
Bartender, Smokin’ Racks BBQ Bar and Grill, Dallas Texas 2014-2015 I worked in a high-volume events bar as a bartender and cocktail server. This was my first high-volume bartending job. We were a full-time restaurant during the day and a high-volume bar with karaoke, open mic nights, and live music in the evenings. The bar was often so packed I never stopped moving. Part-time Bartender, AMC MacGuffins Bar, 2014
I bartended during peak hours (nights and weekends) at AMC bar making standard and specialty cocktails for incoming audiences. The flow was consistent with the film blocks so I learned to navigate the ebb and flow of slow periods followed by sudden high-volume periods. References
