Hello, I'm David.
Extroverted, adventurous, and friendly soul who loves to be around people; loves to make people smile and try new things!
I have an incredibly diverse background of experience, from working in restaurants and bars to professional acting. I have an international background and thrive in multicultural environments. The thing I enjoy most is interacting with people! My most recent role was as a bar manager and I have comprehensive knowledge and experience about the day to day function of a bar and managing personnel. My experience working with guests, combined with great people skills drawn from my experience as an actor make me feel absolutely at home behind a bar. There is a balance between having fun and being professional when working behind the bar and through my experience I have strived to find that perfect equilibrium. I completed the International Bartender Course at EBS with an A and have a solid base of experience bartending, creating original cocktails, and managing staff. I feel well-equipped for my next challenge.
