What do you love about bartending?
I was a coffee barista at first, and bartending has been always in my mind but it seemed so far away. I then got the chance to learn this fine art and was instantly hooked to the fun and excitement of being able to balance a drink and to continue the legacy of someone or even reignite it. In some cases, we can even convey our message, personality and character into a drink and make it enjoyable at the same time. That thought alone thrills me.

What do you feel about girl power and feminism in your community?
Girl power and feminism in my community has been rising. Females are respected so much more in every single way. That harmony between all genders is something that I’ve always aspired to. It’s not that we want to be better than men, we just want to respect one another. Only then we can live in harmony.
