Restaurant Consulting
With over twenty years in hospitality leadership and bar development, I help restaurants, hotels, and bars elevate every aspect of their beverage program — from concept to execution. My consulting services are built on a simple philosophy: great bar programs are about more than drinks; they’re about people, process, and purpose.
Services include full cocktail and menu design, staff and management training, liquor cost and inventory systems, glassware and equipment procurement, and bar design consultation. I also work closely with ownership teams to refine operational flow, establish clear management systems, and strengthen team culture.
My approach blends creativity with practical strategy — ensuring your bar not only looks and feels world-class but also runs efficiently, consistently, and profitably. Each program is custom-built to reflect your brand identity, guest demographics, and long-term goals.
As an educator and operator, I take pride in empowering teams with knowledge and confidence, helping them deliver service that is both inspired and consistent. And with no brand affiliations, my recommendations are always made in your best interest.
Private Events
With over two decades of experience behind the bar and beyond, I bring a uniquely elevated touch to private and corporate events across North America. Whether you're hosting an intimate dinner, a wedding celebration, or a brand activation, my focus is on creating an experience that feels effortless, personal, and unforgettable.
From bespoke cocktail design and menu development to full-service bar setup and staffing, every detail is handled with precision and care. Each event is built around your vision — incorporating custom glassware, premium spirits, and professional bartenders who embody warmth and hospitality.
My approach is rooted in storytelling through flavour. Whether we’re crafting a signature cocktail inspired by your brand or curating a selection of rare spirits for an immersive tasting experience, every element is designed to engage the senses and create lasting impressions.
With no paid brand affiliations, my recommendations are entirely independent — ensuring your event reflects your style, not someone else’s agenda.
Let’s collaborate to create a seamless, one-of-a-kind event that your guests will talk about long after the last sip.
Spirit Tastings
As a certified WSET Spirits Educator with years of experience teaching and developing bar programs, I offer guided tastings that combine professional education with genuine enjoyment. Each session is designed to spark curiosity, deepen understanding, and build confidence — whether for hospitality professionals, corporate teams, or private groups looking for something extraordinary.
My tastings explore the stories, science, and craftsmanship behind each spirit. From classic categories like whisky, rum, and agave to emerging styles and artisanal producers, we move beyond surface-level appreciation into a world of sensory exploration and cultural connection.
Tastings can be tailored to your group’s focus — from comparative regional flights to ingredient-driven deep dives or themed cocktail experiences. I also offer staff training sessions that balance technical knowledge with practical service applications, empowering your team to speak about spirits with authenticity and expertise.
With my unbiased, brand-independent approach, you can be confident that every tasting is crafted to educate, engage, and inspire — not to sell.
Book a private or corporate tasting and experience spirits in a way that’s approachable, thoughtful, and deeply memorable.
