• Experience with public speaking, demonstrations, teaching, or entertainment
• Knowledge of wine, spirits, cocktails, food pairings, or specialty beverages
• Experience with experiential hospitality, private events, or corporate programs

You're knowledgeable without being intimidating, confident without being arrogant, and entertaining without losing professionalism.

You enjoy connecting with people and know how to turn a class, tasting, or demonstration into an experience guests will remember and talk about long after the event ends.

Guests leave feeling welcomed, engaged, entertained, and inspired. They learn something new, participate actively, and walk away with a memorable experience led by a host who made them feel included and excited to come back again.

Perfect for chefs, bartenders, culinary instructors, beverage educators, and hospitality professionals looking for flexible, guest-facing work in a fun and engaging environment.
