Chad, our very own true Austinite, traces his roots in the food and beverage world back to 2000, starting with Hoody's Subs in Round Rock at the age of 15. His diverse career includes roles as bartender, operating music venues and even running a Craigslist-based bartending service (it was always meant to be) Finally in 2018, he found himself at Drink Slingers, initially seeking only to bartend however, his perception changed as he discovered the company's unique qualities, saw growth opportunities, and recognized the exceptional leadership of owners, Nannette and Sadie and in doing so, has become an integral part of what makes Drink Slingers exceptional. 

The privilege of contributing to the company's success and the trust placed in him to run operations are significant motivators but his classic good looks and humor make him the oil that keeps the gears spinning both in the office and out at the events. His enthusiasm stems from the opportunity to streamline and scale operations, ensuring the continued success of this incredible company.

From Chad's perspective, several factors distinguish Drink Slingers from other Event Bartending companies in Austin. Longevity in the industry (established in 2015, cheers!), local insight, commitment to providing living wages to our staff, a symbiotic relationship between the company and its employees, and a clear understanding of its identity and strengths.
