Having visited over 250 cocktail bars and counting, I've been fortunate enough to witness mixology at its finest across various cultures and cities. Hailing from the vibrant backdrop of New York City, I was immersed in a dynamic cocktail scene. This upbringing ignited my lifelong passion for mixology, bartending, cocktails, and the rich tapestry of flavors found in spirits.

Beyond Mixology
Not only do I cherish making cocktails, but I also love the experience of entertaining. There's something truly special about bringing people together, sharing stories, and creating memorable moments through the craft of mixology.
Industry Knowledge
With years of immersion in the bar industry, I've gathered a wealth of knowledge about mixology trends, spirits, bar culture, and the ever-evolving cocktail scene. I'm excited to share insights, tips, and recommendations to elevate your cocktail experience.
