ABOUTUS
The Boa Bar team was founded by three brothers that share a passion for the hospitality industry and their main purpose is to provide unique experiences that will count as memories.
Carlos Alberto Boada - Renaissance Man
​
Carlos is a friendly and tireless conversationalist, tough but yet tender with a zeal for life. His memory is impeccable, with the ability dating back to his childhood to memorize readings and conversations with the greatest of ease.
​
Carlos Alberto is a restaurant drink operations savant, whose incredible personality makes him the quintessential host for any event. His knowledge of running a successful dining establishment is exemplary, and comes from over eleven years of experience in the hospitality industry, beginning as a server at a family owned restaurant in Rockville, Maryland while he was still in college. He would later become a server at Sugo, a restaurant under the Cava Mezze Restaurant Group, known for having one of the top 100 restaurants in the DC Metro region (Washingtonian Magazine, 2015). Carlos would quickly move up to bartender at Sugo, where he would impress his superiors and be transferred as the bar manager for Julii, a French/Mediterranean inspired restaurant also under CMRG where he honed his craft as a drinks expert.
​
Furthermore, he knows how to maximize revenues and no obstacle is insurmountable for him, a quality that keeps the clients that hire him for his knowledge very happy.
Daniel Bauer - Mr. Determined
​
Daniel is a determined, defiant, calm and clever guy. His determination is the key to his personality. His passion for food and drink shines through in any gathering where he can display his skills.
​
Daniel brings with him over ten years of experience in the hospitality field, with most of his concentration in food and beverage. His skills as a mixologist would eventually help him become the head trainer for a regional bartending school. Daniel then moved up the ranks once again in the corporate restaurant industry as Front of House and Kitchen Manager at Uncle Julio’s, in charge of more than 50 employees at any given shift. His growth did not stop there as he would further his corporate knowledge as a senior leader with Marriott International, responsible for multiple F&B outlets in several different iconic hotels across the DC Metro region.

His passion for leadership, standard implementation, cost reduction, maximizing efficiency and creating a work culture where every employee feels welcomed, encouraged and hungry for advancement.
