Hospitality operations

Experienced hotel operations when you need additional leadership.

Freelance, interim and project-based support across hotel management, operations, front office, revenue and hotel technology.

18+ years hospitality experience · 15+ years in management roles

Practical hotel experience

From the operational floor to multi-property management.

My hospitality background developed through front-office operations, night and duty management, hotel management and multi-property operations. That experience allows me to step into an assignment with an understanding of both day-to-day hotel operations and management responsibility.

Depending on the assignment, support can focus on daily operations, team structure, front office, revenue performance, systems, operational improvement or temporary management capacity.

Operations × technology

Hotel systems make more sense when you understand what happens at the desk.

My technology background complements my hotel experience. I understand software from the operational user’s perspective: reservations, front-office workflows, rate management, reporting and the practical problems teams encounter during a shift.

That combination is particularly useful for PMS changes, workflow improvement, hotel technology projects and operational processes involving multiple systems.
