    During my study at the University of Brighton I worked in a high class cocktailbar. I started at the floor with serving drinks and learning about cocktails and mixers. After a couple of weeks they gave me the chance to prepare and create cocktails myself, so I became bartender. Monthly the Loft Lounge provides training to the staff of well known names in the hospitality where they teach you everything about ingredients of drinks up to serving with flair and tricks but also a course of up-selling drinks for higher bar revenue. This was an instructive year and good experience!
