Experienced hospitality reservation sales professional with strong proofreading and design skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented hospitality professional with broad experience in luxury reservation sales, client communications, and travel assistance. I have booked reservations for upscale properties and focused on upselling while delivering high-quality customer service.
My background includes remote roles in product development, package design, book composition, and proofreading, where I supported new product launches, trade show planning, and patent documentation. I bring hands-on experience with reservation systems such as Navis, SynXis, and Opera, plus the Microsoft Office Suite.
Earlier in my career I worked extensively in banquet service and event execution for weddings and conferences, including leadership as a banquet captain, ensuring events met banquet event orders and luxury service standards. I have also held editorial roles including managing editor and proofreader for publications.
I am driven, team-oriented, and comfortable working remotely. I combine hospitality operations knowledge with editorial precision and design sensibility to support guest experience, product development, and high-quality communications.
