My experience in operations management, food and beverage, budgeting and P&L management, talent acquisition, employee training, full-scale property renovations and new openings was a natural transition into Talent Acquisition and Consulting. ✔ Forbes 2018/2019/2021/2022/2023/2024 America's Best Recruiting Firm - Gecko Hospitality✔ Talent Optimization Consultant - The Predictive Index✔ CMAA (Club Management Association of America) - Member 2008-2018 ✔ The Golden State Chapter (CMAA) - Vendor Partner (2019-2023)✔ Greater Michigan Chapter CMAA - Vendor Partner (2020-2023)✔ Michigan Restaurant & Lodging Association - Allied Partner✔ Detroit Restaurant & Lodging Association - Allied Partner✔ California Hotel & Lodging Association - Allied Partner ✔ Hotel Association Los Angeles - Allied Partner ✔ San Diego County Lodging Association - Allied Partner ✔ American Hotel & Lodging Association - Allied Partner ✔ Greater Irvine Chamber of Commerce - Monday Leads Group - Vicechair 2022/23✔ Greater Irvine Chamber of Commerce - Monday Leads Group - Chair 2023/24✔ Greater Irvine Chamber of Commerce - Ambassador✔ Greater Irvine Chamber of Commerce - Ambassador Committee - Vicechair 2024/25✔ NAPS (National Association of Personnel Services) - Member✔ NACE (National Association for Catering and Events) Partnership - 2019/2020 I apply a well-balanced, down to earth, and intuitive approach paired with technology driven analytical methods to each of my clients' needs.
