It's a rare feat to meet someone and know instinctively that the future of your relationship will be mutually beneficial. I met Amanda/Bad Birdy back at LKSD, over 4 years ago (though it feels like much longer) and was immediately impressed and taken at her ethic, intelligence, and accessibility. 

Over the years, as we have evolved as a business and Amanda has grown into her own enterprise, it's always felt in tandem as she has spread the word of our ice and we have used her as a resource and influencer in the local, regional, and global bartending community. We've collaborated a handful of times and each instance is breathless and seamless as we work together to find a pleasant solution for each other - without bravado or pain. 

Look to Amanda for all your needs and marvel at how good she will make you feel for your decision at developing a fruitful relationship.

-Isaac Mejia, Owner

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Amanda many times over the course of the last 8 years. Her professionalism and work ethic are absolutely one of a kind. She is extremely knowledgeable and has a positive attitude in anything she does. She is truly a master of her craft. Amongst other things, she helped me build a successful bar program for my restaurant and provided training for my staff. On a personal level, she is a genuine person who truly cares, and I have greatly enjoyed working with her on every project.

Working with Bad Birdy is always a joy and occasion.  Both our agency and the client brands that she has partnered with from newer product brands like Diplomatico Rum to a veteran brand like Tequila Partida - Bad Birdy just gets it and delivers.  Colangelo and partners have found more than a partnership with Bad Birdy - she is a force to be reckoned with and a relationship that we will continue to support and hope to grow with across client brands.

Creating the perfect cocktail presentation is just as much garnish and color as it is choosing the right glass to elevate the drink to a feast for the eyes and a stage set for a carefully crafted experience. Amanda’s eye in this regard is incredible in pairing the right drinks to the right vessels and creating something that’s so much more than the sum of its parts. It’s a pleasure to see the alchemy she creates as she transforms our glassware into visual gold.

- Armagan Mucahit, Director of Marketing

Bad Birdy and her team far surpassed "above and beyond" when it came to the time, dedication, and energy they poured into our activation for HBO's original series, The Nevers. Point blank, they took the collaboration into the stratosphere. Weaving the series' key themes and characters into both her bespoke cocktails and the content that followed, her work delighted audiences and brought new fans to the table as they crafted her creations alongside each episodic release. 

Amanda's unparalleled creativity, grasp of storytelling, expert production quality and attention to detail gave fans an invitation to explore the world around the show, and ultimately set the standard for our entire content series. An experience loved by all, we look forward to working with her again in the very near future.

- Carl Stevens, Account Director, RQ

Bad Birdy was amazing to work with. She captures so many aspects of what we hope to create with our brand. She is skillful, artistic and in our opinion, the voice for the new generation of cocktail influencers. We would be honored to work with Bad Birdy in the future on more exciting projects and content!
