“Hospitality sales demands partnerships and communication. It’s the little things that matter.”

In my 12 years’ experience in business travel and my 20+ years in the hotel industry, I have developed a robust and diverse client base and my experience / qualifications lend themselves well to a progressive and innovative organization. My goal, always, is to be an industry trend-setter.

My luxury management portfolio has included The Portofino Hotel & Marina in Los Angeles, The Edgewater in Seattle, and Hotel Deca in Seattle.

With strong, decisive leadership, I demonstrate the proven ability to
• Develop promotions and incentives for increased revenue opportunities.
• Meet aggressive sales goals while directing sales, marketing, and revenue management teams.
• Manage all transient accounts, business strategies, annual budgets, and strategic positioning.
• Organize of programs to stay ahead of the competitive set through proper pricing.
• Direct rate loading, quarterly audits, and the development and revising of business models.
• Provide ongoing training and development of travel industry sales managers.

Specialties include Strategic Business Plan Development, Sales and Marketing Leadership, Sales Training, Motivation & Goals, Hospitality Industry Direct Marketing and Distribution.
