Summary
Join us for one of the most extraordinary career journeys you will ever hear as Roberto Nuñez, National Brand Ambassador for Patrón Tequila, shares how he left the priesthood to become a bartender. Roberto opens up about his 15 years in the seminary, including working at the Vatican as a tour guide and ceremonier, before realizing that his true calling lay behind the bar. He also draws historical connections between spirits, religion, and service, noting the long tradition of monks and priests producing beer, wine, and liqueurs, and how that foundation shaped his approach to hospitality. Roberto also discusses how his Mexican heritage instilled a deep respect for serving others, and why bartending ultimately became his true form of ministry.
