      I am thrilled to be leading a 20-person team of servers, hostesses and bartenders at this unique family-owned restaurant. Through serving authentic Italian food in a formal dining setting, curating an extensive wine & cocktail menu, preparing for live music every night, and everything in-between, I have a lot on my plate! But I wouldn't have it any other way. I have been particularly focused on fostering a customer-centric atmosphere for our guests, maximizing sales growth through a one-of-a-kind wine list, and leading an inclusive and knowledgeable wait staff.
