What I'm looking for

I seek senior academic or programme-development roles in tourism/hospitality where I can lead curriculum design, quality assurance, staff development, and align programmes with industry needs.

I am an experienced tourism and hospitality academic and programme developer with extensive teaching, accreditation and administrative expertise across universities and regulatory bodies. I have led curriculum development, supervised research dissertations, and coordinated programme delivery for bachelor and associate degree students.

My work includes developing nationally accredited tourism and hospitality programmes, assessing higher-education institutions for the Botswana Qualifications Authority, and serving in senior faculty roles such as Principal Lecturer and Programme Leader. I combine practical hotel operations experience with academic rigour and quality assurance practice.

I am committed to mentoring staff and students, improving programme quality, and delivering outcomes that meet industry needs. I bring strong administrative, training and supervisory skills, underpinned by an MSc in Tourism and Hospitality Management and hands-on hotel management experience.
