Trailer Happiness is an inclusive space where everyone is welcome, even when I used to visit the bar as a consumer myself I always felt that the space was special and helped to craft special moments for me and my friends.” Having worked in the industry for 11 years now, I can honestly say it’s the responsibility of owning someone’s happiness and enjoyment for a night, is what makes me want to continue working in this industry for the rest of my life. “When I was younger I always wanted to pursue a career in comic books and having worked as a freelance graphic designer and web developer for a few years you can see where my creative passions were born from. That’s exactly why I have no regrets about my decision to stop working in finance and to pursue a career in hospitality”.
Whether connecting with guests, crafting unforgettable experiences through impeccable crafts and ambiance or building a harmonious and uplifting team, it’s all ignited in my passion and motivation as a bartender. It’s the buzz that I get when I’m serving customers cocktails. “The customer interaction and opportunities for growth and advancement in the industry are unmatched in my opinion.
Introducing the global bartenders featured in the exhibition who are, here to tell their own story about our community and industry: Here’s to our bartending community across the globe!” Bartenders all over the globe have unique creativity and talent that deserves to be showcased and celebrated.
