I have led sales and marketing teams to open four luxury resorts in Florida and the Caribbean and successfully turned around low-performing resorts. I design high-performing sales and marketing plans for luxury hotels and resorts. I have managed top creative agencies, public relations, revenue management, and digital marketing campaigns. I have also received multiple awards and recognition for my work, including the 2020 Benchmark Hotel and Resorts Sales Team of the Year and the 2019 HSMAI Gold Adrian Award for Digital Marketing.
