Currently looking for a new position in Hospitality in Eastern Idaho

At The Exeter Inn I was the Catering Sales Manager selling event space and overnight rooms to social and corporate groups. In 2008 when I was hired, The Exeter Inn was undergoing a major renovation. I helped with rebranding and positioning the Inn to be more of contemporary, upscale, sophisticated and boutique property. The Inn has a unique floor plan that I got creative with thinking outside of the box especially with weddings to be able to accommodate the needs of all different types of set ups. Through this process I was able to build relationships with clients and turn them into repeat business as well as gain great word of mouth about our property.I worked very closely with our Maître de and Chef to plan and execute events which were out of the norm or "cookie cutter" trend. We adopted a style of personalization for each event and had a theme of "surprise and delight" for all our guests. The three of us all had extensive backgrounds in our positions that allowed us to work very well together, form a great team environment for our staff and left a lasting and memorable impression for all of our guests.During my time at this property we won the Brides Choice Award from Wedding Wire in 2010, 2011 and 2012 as well as the Best of Weddings from The Knot 2011 and 2012.
