What I'm looking for

I am looking for senior hospitality roles where I can lead quality and operations across multi-unit portfolios, mentor leaders, implement SOPs, and drive measurable guest satisfaction and brand compliance improvements.

I am an experienced hospitality leader with over 13 years improving operational quality, guest satisfaction, and brand compliance across major global hotel brands. I currently oversee quality for 100+ IHG properties across Canada and the U.S., conducting evaluations, delivering action plans, and training leaders to elevate standards.

Throughout my career I have led multi-unit and luxury operations—directing hotel operations for a 700+ room property, managing rooms divisions at Fairmont Château Lake Louise, and operating within unionized environments. I have a strong track record in service recovery, SOP and KPI execution, and cross-functional leadership that drives measurable score improvement.

I bring practical experience in departmental coaching, quality evaluation visits, and implementing strategic improvements that protect brand standards and enhance guest experience. I seek opportunities where I can continue to lead quality initiatives, mentor teams, and deliver consistent performance gains across portfolios.
