Thomas was our very first Hey Bartender in 2020 during a Negroni-themed virtual birthday happy hour; helping to start a cocktail movement and open this virtual bar.

When not behind the bar, you can find him singing Taylor Swift (just the bops) cruising around NYC on his motorbike.

A woman of many talents, Vee was an OG HB and is also our rollerskating social media queen. A Brooklyn native and San Diego transplant, Vee has worked at every kind of bar you can think of, from upscale whiskey bars, to high end restaurants and top craft cocktail bars.

Now Vee is "shaking" things up on the social media front for small and large spirits brands alike.

If you’ve had a cocktail in San Diego in the last fifteen years, there’s a good chance Brian has had a hand in it. He is also an inaugural member of the San Diego chapter of the Hubertus Circle, "... an exclusive, non-competitive programme run by Jägermeister for elite bartenders with a proven commitment to their art and craft.”

When not behind the bar, he enjoys spontaneous dance-offs with his kiddies.
