About
Hi, I'm Erika, I have been a professional bartender for more years than I care to admit. I am fully vaccinated. I am fun and professional and would love to work for you. My specialty are "SNEAK UP ON YOU" drinks. The kind of drinks where the alcohol is so well balanced that you can barely taste it.... until you try to stand up. I love speaking with my new clients. Communication is very important to creating a trusting relationship between us.
I have created services packages that are priced fairly for clients who provide their own alcohol, as well as packages that include alcohol. I'm a HOSPITALITY PROFESSIONAL. The people I work with are also hospitality professionals. When you hire my service, you will never have to worry about impropriety. Thank you for your attention. I hope to hear from you very soon.

Erika and Alicia were both super fantastic. Erika was very kind and professional and connected us with Alicia, who went above and beyond during our party. She made amazing drinks, was incredibly helpful and so kind! Also a plus: Alicia is bilingual so it was great for our guests. 10/10 would recommend Erika and Alicia for any of your bartending needs!

Erika was wonderful! She came out to bartend for an anniversary party I threw for my parents. Leading up to the event she was very transparent and communicative about what to expect. She made delicious drinks and provided professional and enjoyable service. I would hire her again for a future party need. Thanks Erika!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on my HIGH QUALITY of service and travel time. When TIP JARS are allowed, the hourly rate is LOWER by $10 for a 100 people or more. And the event is 6 hours or more.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like speaking with my potential clients. Speaking with you helps me to build trust with you and it provides personality compatibility information. I also will send my new clients an questionnaire to determine the extent of my service is needed. I also send MY NEW CLIENTS samples estimates of what their budget might need be in order not to over or under buy your supplies. So, please feel free to call me when you have questions. I should have the answers you will need.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was trained at the American Bar Tending School NYC. I was have worked in nightclubs, restaurants and catering companies and most of the major award shows in Los Angeles.
