About
I am a confident and passionate bartender with experience across some very different hospitality environments, from the lively pace of Cornershop Bar in Shoreditch, a club and sports pub bar, and the high-traffic service of Boxhall City, a large venue bar at Liverpool Street, to the more refined setting of Yama Momo, a Japanese fine-dining restaurant bar in East Dulwich. These roles have strengthened my ability to work quickly, stay organised, and maintain a consistently high standard of service in busy venues. I value quality, presentation and guest experience, and I bring a calm, professional and team-focused approach to every shift.
With a strong foundation already built, I am continuing to grow as a bartender and take pride in the work I do behind the bar.
