Food & Beverage Director,
Mina Sarmiento
I embarked on my journey in the restaurant and service industry in 2010, quickly advancing from server to supervisor to manager thanks to my dedication and reliability. As a manager, I am deeply committed to exceeding guests’ expectations with compassion, patience, and exceptional customer service. My hands-on approach and high personal standards drive me to inspire my team and foster a positive work environment, ensuring a memorable experience for our guests at Tilden Park.
Outside of my role at the Overlook at Tilden Park, I cherish spending time with friends and family, biking, and practicing meditation to stay centered and ready for the next challenge life brings.
