Cocktail: 99 Aloha Shirts & a Tiny Umbrella

Sarah Troxwell has been working in hospitality for 16 years, basically since she was old enough to have a car and a job. Her dad told her if you have experience in a restaurant you will always be able to find a job - 16 years later, she has attended culinary school and worked just about every position in a restaurant. She fell in love with craft bartending and started pursuing it professionally about 8 years ago, combining her love for hospitality and guest interaction with the creativity of cooking and food and flavors. The most inspiring thing about food and beverage is that she will *never* know everything, but she is so hungry for all of the knowledge. She is a Speed Rack National winner and Bar 5 ready.
