What I'm looking for

I seek a hospitality role focused on managing groups and events where I can own event logistics, improve guest experience, and grow into senior event operations.

I am an event-focused hotel professional with hands-on experience coordinating groups and events, managing front desk operations, and supporting sales and marketing initiatives. I have worked across Lisbon properties where I prepared proposals, contracts and proformas, supervised events, and ensured contractual compliance.

My background includes front office leadership, guest relations, billing oversight and internships in sales & marketing and front office departments. I have produced hotel performance reports, planned group activities, and acted as the liaison between clients and operational teams to deliver smooth event execution.

I hold a postgraduate degree in Event Management and a bachelor’s in Tourism and Hotel Management, and I bring strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills—aiming to join a team where I can manage complex events and contribute to memorable guest experiences.
