Jalissa, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
My business basically started by wanting to pay for graduate school I had to find a way to make extra money to pay for tuition without applying for a loan .. one day my friends asked me to bartend there wedding and to make signature cocktail, I received outstanding reviews. I begin to get more bookings for more events by adverting my many crafts of bartendering.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The road has definitely been challenging, being an Entrepreneur is very humbling and there’s so much investing into yourself. Being a private bartender downtown becomes very stressed because you’re not always busy throughout the year you have downtime and which is very stressful you got a find a way just to stay current.
