Amazing!!

Jen was absolutely fantastic and truly exceeded all expectations at our event. From the moment she arrived, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She handled everything seamlessly, always anticipating what was needed and making sure our guests felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the evening.

What really stood out was her calm, positive attitude and genuine care—she made the entire event feel effortless and stress-free for us as hosts. Several guests even commented on how great the service was. Jen is reliable, polished, and a joy to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional service!!!

What to expect

• WHAT’S INCLUDED IN MY QUOTES:
-Me bringing my own personal BARTENDING/MIXING TOOLS.
-SPILL MATS for the surface I work on (keeps things tidy!)
-TRAVEL COSTS to get myself to/from your venue.
I take into account how far I am having to travel & how much it’ll cost me before I agree on a set price to send out (especially if you are requesting me to work late/after midnight hours & live a distance away from me, for my safety in getting to/from I usually choose to travel via Lyft or Uber).
I typically travel via Subway/Bus/Lyft/Uber, or a combo. of these - so please keep this in mind prior to hiring me.
-PREP TIME prior to the start and CLEAN UP at the end of your event.
-MY TIME and EFFORT/work for doing the job while at your event.

• UPON REQUEST: I could bring any of combo of the following:
*Garnishes (lemons/limes/oranges/cherries/olives etc.)
*Dishes for the Garnishes
*Cocktail Napkins
*Straws
*Sweeteners (agave/simple syrup)
*Citrus Juices (lemon/lime)
*Any special requests for specialty drinks that have ingredients not readily available in store (infused syrups, specialty fruits etc.).
However, if any of these are requested, I typically do not include them in my quote I send here, so I usually ask for reimbursement at the start of the event (& I provide the receipt).

• WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED IN MY QUOTES:
-LARGER BAR ITEMS, such as the actual bar or table.
I do not have a car or means to a vehicle so I do not have a portable bar to supply. (However, I am flexible on where you’d like me to set up and work from, regardless).
-GLASSWARE
With not having a car, nor working within a staffing/catering type company, I do not have the means to physically carry or store these type items with me on public transit. However, I can absolutely recommend other alternatives or give you names of rental companies to inquire pricing from.
-GRATUITY
More times that not, I typically do not include gratuity upfront. I do this because sometimes clients want me to have a tip cup out instead, or they choose to tip me themselves at the end. However, I’m negotiable on this, but please have a convo. with me on this prior to booking if you’d like to set this up differently.

• NUTSHELL INFO ABOUT ME:
I have been in the Hospitality industry since I was 16 y/o-present (over two decades). I have done everything from waitressing, shot girl, vip bottle service, bartending, catering, promotional events (both liquor, home & food products).
This includes venues such as small family run bar/restaurants to large chain restaurants, large sports/nightlife bars, large outdoor events/venues (worked at Governor's Ball, Electric Zoo and some private pop-up events in NYC etc.), Colleges/Universities, nightclubs, weddings, engagements, bat mitzvah's, baby showers, birthdays, private corporate and family/home events & similar.

About

I am a motivated, responsible, goal oriented individual with a great work record (& great reviews!) and reliable transportation (public transit or uber/lyft etc). I feel that with my background in customer service, being in the hospitality industry (over 2 decades now!) and with my outgoing personality, it makes me easy to work with for any type event.

Qualities / Areas of Effectiveness:
· Responsible and reliable with strong organizational skills.
· Able to work without supervision independently or in a group setting.
· Quick learner with excellent people skills.
· Effective at multitasking and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
· Ability to communicate effectively with management and customers alike.
