What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values operational excellence and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated Finance and Administrative Executive with extensive experience in managing operations and ensuring compliance within the property and hospitality sectors. Currently, I work at Hostelling International, where I create and maintain Health & Safety policies and manage data entry processes. My role involves advising on Health & Safety tasks and overseeing staff onboarding and offboarding.

Previously, I served as the Head of Property Operations at Kooky, where I was responsible for the day-to-day operations of multiple properties, implementing operational procedures, and managing financial reporting. My experience also includes mobilizing multi-tower developments at Greystar, where I successfully led projects from practical completion to stabilization, ensuring customer satisfaction and compliance with health and safety regulations.
