Was given the opportunity to step into the role of General Manager for a beautifully renovated 156-room Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott, owned and operated by PR Hotels Group. Through the COVID pandemic, fires, floods, heat domes - those four years were challenging, but through it all the team grew together, supported one another, and we enjoyed some.

Had the opportunity to come home from my travels and return to the Braemar Group at their award winning property, the Best Western Plus in beautiful West Kelowna. Through my two years, I learned about the Best Western brand and the differences between it and other chains and independents I've been a part of in the past. Excelled at revenue management.
