Professional summary

I am a global hospitality operations executive with more than 25 years of experience leading hotel, luxury hospitality, senior living, and multi-site operations across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa.

I specialize in hospitality onboarding, implementation, pre-opening readiness, operational launches, team adoption, and stabilization. I translate complex brand, ownership, technology, construction, staffing, and guest-experience requirements into structured operating frameworks.

I have built and coached multidisciplinary teams of more than 160 employees across hospitality, sales, customer experience, nursing, dining, engineering, and administration. My leadership approach emphasizes clear standards, accountability, service quality, performance management, and practical execution.

I am experienced in managing complex stakeholder relationships across owners, brands, vendors, technical partners, construction teams, frontline employees, residents, guests, and community partners. I serve effectively as a senior escalation point while protecting customer trust and brand standards.

My background includes multiple international pre-openings, new-market launches, multi-property operations, and transformation initiatives. I bring a hotel operator's perspective combined with strong project discipline, change-management capability, and customer-experience focus.

I am open to global remote leadership opportunities focused on hospitality operations, customer onboarding, implementation, operational readiness, and multi-site leadership.
