My Background in F&B
I am currently the sr. Bartender at ILIS NYC under the direction of Bobby Murphy (NEXT, Existing Conditions). Previously I was the Beverage Director at Le Salon Cocktail Bar in Tribeca (now closed). LSCB offered a menu of five 0-proof cocktails alongside an array of nostalgic thought provoking gastronomic libations. I created a guided Barrel Aged Cocktail Tasting & Solera Ageing Masterclass and the TikTok famous Celestial Cocktail Hour featuring Harridan Vodka where guests spin a zodiac wheel to try and win a free celestial themed cocktail.
I am available for cocktail styling for photo shoots, private events (Nom & Meniscus), Guest Shifts, Consulting, and recipe development for publication.
