What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values operational excellence and customer satisfaction, where I can leverage my dual expertise in fitness and hospitality.

I am a dynamic and client-focused professional with over 7 years of experience in the fitness industry and more than 4 years in hospitality operations. My journey has been marked by a proven ability to manage and scale hospitality businesses, enhance guest satisfaction, and deliver exceptional service experiences. I am committed to operational excellence, digital adaptability, and people-first leadership.

As the Founder and Host at ShackStone Café & Stay, I built and launched the business from the ground up, overseeing all aspects of hospitality operations. My efforts led to a remarkable 92% average occupancy rate and a 35% increase in referrals through effective guest issue resolution. Additionally, I have successfully optimized properties on OTA platforms, achieving 5-star reviews and boosting occupancy rates significantly.

With a strong background in fitness, I have delivered customized training programs to over 100 clients globally, maintaining a 90% client retention rate. My dual expertise in fitness and hospitality, combined with my empathetic approach, allows me to create meaningful connections and deliver exceptional service experiences.
