In my capacity, I have full financial and operational responsibility for two luxury hotels in midtown Manhattan, with an impressive total of 246 keys. Under my strategic guidance, we have boosted top-line revenues to exceed $30 million, while simultaneously elevating our TripAdvisor rankings and introducing cutting-edge guest feedback systems and loyalty programs.My tenure at Fitzpatrick Hotel Group has been marked by continual growth and development, and I take great pride in the lasting, positive impact I have made on the organization.

As an Executive and Board Member of the Hotel Association of New York City, Vice Chair of HANYC, and Trustee to the Pension Fund, I have worked hard to advocate for the interests of both the industry and its employees, helping to shape the present and future of hospitality in New York.Moving forward, I am enthusiastic about the potential to apply my experience and passion in a new and rewarding opportunity.
