Summary

Born and raised internationally, I was fortunate enough to have experienced 43 countries by the time was 25- 5 of which I lived in for numerous years. I am a graduate from one of the most competitive hospitality programs in Ontario, Canada, and my international upbringing coupled with my diverse work history within the hospitality industry has only solidified my passion for this industry. I am eager to further my development and start my next chapter with a company that I can learn, grow, and be proud to be a part of.
