Hello, I'm Atilla Volkan.
Enthusiastic bartender with hands-on experience and training; passionate about crafting memorable experiences and connecting with people; adaptable and keen to learn. I thrive in dynamic environments, seeking growth in this exciting field.
Throughout my bartending journey, I've honed a strong work ethic and developed a range of transferable skills. At Shorty, a bustling shot bar, I quickly adapted to a high-paced environment, managing both team and individual responsibilities with efficiency and composure. My role as a shift leader and head bartender taught me valuable lessons in team management, customer engagement, and meticulous cash handling. My training at the European Bartender School further refined my skills, particularly in crafting a wide array of cocktails and understanding the nuances of various spirits, flavors and techniques. This experience enhanced my ability to provide unique beverage experiences to customers, showcasing my creativity and attention to detail. I pride myself on my organizational abilities, reliability, and stamina, which are crucial in the fast-paced world of bartending. My communication skills, both with customers and within a team, have always been a strong point, allowing me to create a welcoming and efficient atmosphere. I'm always eager to learn and grow, seeking new challenges and opportunities to expand my skill set in this vibrant industry.
