I started as a Secretary in the Business Center and later served as a Guest Relations/Experience Manager in charge of Quality. After that, I became a Front Office Manager and Housekeeping Manager, and in 2021 I joined Radisson Hotel Group as a Rooms Division Manager. I am a family person who loves to take care of others.
