How did you start serving drinks? I started in Carboz’s old sports bar, which is now Callahans.
Best bartending story:After throwing away wadded napkins sitting in front of a particular customer’s glass throughout the night. I looked down the bar at one point to realize that he was blowing his nose [on the napkins]. I thought I was just keeping the bar tidy, but I was picking up and throwing away his snot rags the whole night. It was gross!
Most popular drink at your bar:Ice Bomb shots and Black and Tans
Specialty drink:The Sui! A combination of multiple Stolichnaya Russian Vodkas and mixtures.
Best tip you’ve ever received:$40 for a bottle of wine
If I wasn’t bartending, I would be:taking trips out of town for the weekend
What do you do after you get off work? Usually I find an after hours party to go to with my fellow employees, or we create one of our own.

Favorite people to work with:Any positive, energetic people who are able to get the job done and have fun while doing it.
Favorite customers:Those who are friendly and tip.
Best part about your job:Being able to meet and interact with so many interesting people, and walking out with a pocket full of cash!
Hardest part about your job:Trying to keep every customer happy.
Who is a better tipper, men or women? As a female bartender, I’d personally say men are a better tipper.
Number of times you’ve watched “Cocktail?” Maybe three?
Favorite Tom Cruise movie, if not “Cocktail?” “Top Gun”
