Summary
I am not only a passionate hospitality professional who loves the industry, I am also a professional trainer and consultant on soft skills with a scope in management and leadership development through partnerships with Ken Blanchard, VitalSmarts, Eagle’s Flight and Bob Pike.

I am always looking for opportunities to promote hospitality and attract young talents to the industry including projects with universities and government institutions in the Middle East and Europe.

If I don't have the answer, I will be willing to share with you what I know and I might be able to put you in touch with others who can help you. After all, this is what networking is about!

Specialties: situational leadership, crucial conversation, influencing skills, time management, presentation skills, crucial accountability, customer service.
